CORDUROY By Don Freeman

Poor Corduroy! Why won't anyone buy him? Could it be because his overalls are missing a button? Late at night, the teddy bear searches the store for his button. He never finds it, but he does find a girl who loves him and gives him a home. Heartwarming and humorous, this is a picture-book classic.
CORDUROY offers children a feel-good storyline, a memorable main character, and charming illustrations. Bright, loosely drawn pictures feature scenes familiar to many children: shelves of toys, department stores, and bedrooms. The characters' facial expressions of sadness, curiosity, and joy are drawn so that even the youngest children can understand much of the story simply by looking at the pictures.

WHAT DO PEOPLE DO ALL DAY By Richard Scarry

The first section's story introduces Farmer Alfalfa, who keeps some of the food he's grown for his family and sells the rest to Grocer Cat. This simple transaction sets off a chain of events: Alfalfa uses the money he's made to buy a suit from the tailor, a tractor from the blacksmith to expand his business, and gifts for his family, and puts the rest in the bank. The tailor, in turn, buys an egg beater, the blacksmith buys more iron for his shop. From there, the book explores the type of work done in diverse areas: construction, firefighting, a hospital, the postal service, train and ocean travel, farming, lumber, road construction, and a bakery.
This is a beloved classic, richly layered with details children will enjoy and learn from for years. Scarry clears away some of the mystery about the adult world and explains the basics of how an economy works -- and makes it fun!

SPARKY by By Jenny Offill

The ingenious author of 17 Things I'm Not Allowed to Do Anymore and a brilliant illustrator and production designer of the Coraline movie have created a hilarious, touching picture book perfect for young animal lovers. Like the Caldecott Medal-winning Officer Buckle and Gloria, Sparky stars a pet who has more to offer than meets the eye. When our narrator orders a sloth through the mail, the creature that arrives isn't good at tricks or hide-and-seek or much of anything. Still, there's something about Sparky that is irresistible.
