That Is Not a Good Idea by Mo Willems

Written in the style of a silent film, a very hungry fox lures a plump goose over for dinner. All the while, her goslings are warning, "That is not a good idea.!" There is a surprising twist at the end as you learn about listening to your inner gosling.
Mo Willems is one of my favorite children's authors, and I think he really outdid himself this time. I really enjoyed the goslings' warnings because I find myself doing the same thing whenever I am watching a movie. This book is great for ages 6 and up

Hooray for Amanda and Her Alligator by Mo Willems

Amanda has an alligator for a best friend. (Don't worry, he's stuffed!)  They have lots surprising adventures, such as a practical joke, where Alligator came from, an new friend, and many other adventures. These are the 6 1/2 short stories about a girl and her alligator.
I've always been a fan of Mo Willems, and this book doesn't disappoint. The pro-library tone of the book is great, the subtle humor is excellent, and the titles of Amanda's books are very clever. My favorite title is Climbing Things for Fun and Profit. I recommend this book for kids of all ages.
