Tayra's Not Talking
There's a new kid in the kindergarten class, but she won't say a word! But ... does it really matter? This sweet story has a timely message: there are many ways to make --- and be --- a friend! The students in Miss Seabrooke's kindergarten class don't understand why the new student won't respond when they talk to her. Speaking LOUDER doesn't help. Tayra doesn't even answer the teacher! Should they just leave her be? Maybe, Kitty decides, she can show Tayra things instead of telling her. Happily, it works! Soon the pair find they can communicate with gestures, dancing, drawings and smiles. And when the others see how much fun they're having, they join in, too! It seems words aren't the only way to connect and be friends! In this charming picture book, Lana Button uses playful, cadenced rhyming text to explore the art of making a friend.

Tails Are Not for Pulling
Pets may not have words, but they can communicate. Paying attention to an animals joyful bark, a scary growl, a swishing tail can help a child understand what the animal is and what an appropriate response might be. That's part of what this book is about. But mostly it's about showing children how to love pets gently because pets are for loving, after all. Kids learn that teasing isn't nice, that they can choose to be kind to animals, and that if you want to touch someone else's pet, there's one important rule you should know: Ask the owner first! A special section for adults includes ideas for teaching children kindness to animals, activities, and discussion starters.
