 A Tree for Mr. Fish by Peter Stein - 32 pagesBird and Cat are chased out of a tree by Fish.  Fish claims it is HIS tree.I can really only say one thing about this book -- it is odd.  The concept of a fish living in a tree is strange.  The humor lies in how does a fish live in a tree without water.Where Is the Dragon? by Leo Timmers - 32 pagesThe king is scared of the dragon and sends his brave knights to get rid of it.I really loved the illustrations in this book.  It makes a fun text better.The Mysterious Sea Bunny by Peter Raymundo - 32 pagesThis picture book explains all about the sea bunny in a fun way for kids.  The narrator interacts with the listener to explain that the sea bunny is actually a sea slug, how the sea bunny's features work, and how it moves.  I really liked this book!Doggie Gets Scared by Leslie Patricelli - 26 pagesBoy's little stuffed Doggie gets scared in the dark, going to day care, and many other times.I love Leslie Patricelli's board books.  They are right at a toddler's level with the text, illustrations, and emotion of the story.  This book ends with a spread of things that can be scary as well as ways to deal with being scared.
