Summary: A wonderful book by a wonderful author/illustrator
Comment: This is a sweet, wonderful book for reading with an older toddler or preschooler, especially at the end of a day that may have been filled with struggles. I love the line "as my world grew bigger, I was big enough to hold it all." Kirk is extremely talented and we own many of his books, but this is my personal favorite, right up there with HUSH, LITTLE ALIEN.

Summary: Celebrating Growth
Comment: This book tells the story of a young boy's growth from embryo to early school from his perspective. The narration is fun and just right to read with 3-5 year olds, and the illustrations are colorful. I like how this book reinforces the good things that accompany growth. Sometimes small children become anxious as their world keeps changing, and sometimes they want to return to the earlier stages. This book stays focused on how growth helps the boy adjust to each new stage and feel more and more comfortable in his world. "Sometimes I didn't like it when other kids played with my toys. But I was getting bigger -- big enough to share." Not only does the boy grow, but so does his world -- from home to school to neighborhood to oceans and mountains and finally the stars. Confidently he says "Everywhere I looked, I saw my world getting bigger, and everything I saw I took inside, and I was big enough to hold it all." The final message is about his growth fulfilling a promise of everything that he is and will be, presenting growth as a very natural unfolding process. All in all, it is a very reassuring message to young boys and girls as their world grows exponentially on a daily basis. This book is a favorite in our house.

Summary: Bigger by Daniel Kirk
Comment: From his mother's womb, this is a tale about how a boy continues to grow with every encounter with the world at large. The way he gets encouragement from the people he meets as he makes his transition to big clothes. It's all about growing, new experiences and new people. Great full-page illustrations supplement the tale of growth.
