After a month of listening to books for our March Book Madness, Friday was the day of our finals! Students joined both virtually and in the media center to vote live. Magic Ramen in the lead throughout the month, but the ultimate winner was I Do Not Eat Children @marcuscutler.bsky.social! So fun!

Check out the hilarious new picture book, DO NOT TURN THE PAGE, by Jane Blondie & @marcuscutler.bsky.social!

A blue-green background with the title “Book Recommendations” and Alison McGauley’s logo. The front cover of the picture book, DO NOT TURN THE PAGE by Jane Blondie and Marcus Cutler, along with a five-star review that reads: Pulls readers in from the first page! This fresh and engaging picture book pulls the reader in from the first page! Kids will relate to little Charlie who tries everything to avoid bathing, and will giggle through the story as they see the hilarious illustrations of Charlie’s mischief and mess and hear his arguments about why the reader should NOT turn the page. Do Not Turn the Page is a lot of fun and has tie-ins with social emotional learning, language, and health. Featured in the graphic are also pictures of rubber duckies and a tub full of bubbles.

How does a picture book become interactive? How about if a character carries on a conversation with the reader each time a page is turned? DO NOT TURN THE PAGE! by Jane Blondie & @marcuscutler.bsky.social is full of laughs. From Scholastic Canada canlitforlittlecanadians.blogspot.com/2025/02/do-n...

Life can be a lot, but also sometimes a cat naps on your lap, so it kind of balances out.
