Gaspard and Lisa's Ready for School Words This
generous board book takes the two toddler puppies through the day,
from waking up in the morning to going home from nursery school
in the afternoon. Each page highlights objects and a narrative thread
helps parents discuss the whole process of going to nursery school
or daycare. Georg Hallensleben's characteristic bold paintings of
Gaspard and Lisa feeding the fish in their classroom, building towers
of ABC blocks, going up and down on the seesaw, painting, and going
home after a busy day are irresistible. |

Gaspard and Lisa's Rainy Day Gaspard and Lisa, best friends, are stuck inside Lisa’s grandmother’s house one rainy afternoon with nothing to do. They try to bake a cake, until Grandma sees the mess they’ve made in the kitchen. Then, they start a game of tennis in the dining room, but Dad doesn’t like that idea at all. Turning the bedroom into a haunted house is not a big hit with Mom. Finally, Gaspard and Lisa decide to put a puzzle together. Hopefully, Grandma won’t mind if they cut up her rabbit-and-pheasant poster and put it back together again. |
