The book is sweet enough, but it isn't anything amazing. It centers around a misunderstanding of a poster that says "You can do anything in a library!" and kind of takes on an absurdist humor skit from there. It really isn't bad. I can see how kids would like it and it has a bit of a lesson on how to act in libraries, but it isn't particularly fantastic.
The February book for My First Books, my Kindergarten kids LOVED this one. I mean, the hilarity of bringing an alligator to school. A fun tie in is to use teacher's names, classmate's names, even the principal's name....it makes the book extremely relevant!

Premise/plot: Any time can be the right time for TUMMY TIME. This book celebrates the ordinary moments of family life. Every spread includes TUMMY TIME. But other moments are highlighted too. One of my favorites, for example, is when the baby is getting all the attention--I believe from grandparents?--and it's the older toddler who is having TUMMY TIME (aka a tantrum on the floor). The book concludes with the mom having "tummy time" in bed getting some much deserved sleep.
My thoughts: I liked this one. I definitely liked it. The illustrations are very expressive. Some of the scenes are super relatable. I like the flow of the text.… (mere)
