Summer Books for Preschoolers

Pea pods, cucumbers, and strawberries provide plenty of opportunities for counting in the garden! Follow Dad, Grandma, and other family members as they pick and count. Hidden numbers on every page give readers an opportunity to search and learn.

Mouse and Minka invite you to celebrate summer with a picnic in the park.

Roll down the hill on tickly green grass. Fly fluttery kites high in the sky. Enjoy some juicy watermelon!

And before it’s time to go home, a summer surprise sparkles in the sky.

Lola is building her dream sandcastle--one with a tall, tall tower and sea glass that sends signals to mermaids.

But the beach is crowded, and soon enough, a boy steps on her castle. Not to worry! Lola recruits him to build a wall.

When a toddler with a bulldozer starts digging too close the walls, Lola decides he can be in charge of digging the moat.

As the sandcastle grows, so does Lola's friendly group of helpers. There's only one thing that Lola doesn't want near the sandcastle: a wave!

Will the new friends be able to salvage the mermaids' castle when their hard work is washed away?
