The Little Island by Margaret Wise Brown

4.0

Beautiful is the word to describe this book. Following the seasons and weather patterns and visitors, The Little Island focuses on a little island filled to the brim with nature. Each painted illustration is amazingly detailed, mimetic to the descriptive text. This is sure to captivate children thanks to the illustrations alone, making it great for reading out loud to groups. As a Caldecott winner, this would be perfect for any library for its artistic merit alone. Everything about it works well together, and it shows. Great for grades 1-4.
