Similar Books: Bark Park

 When I first became a librarian, I was helping our supervisor with a story time and I loved watching her. She was amazing. I couldn't have learned how to have a story time from a better children's librarian. I would always make note of the books she chose for story time and would love to sometimes use the same ones as I started to do story times more often. One of the books she loved to use was Bark Park by Karen Gray Ruelle. Fast forward to today and it is hard for me to believe I've been a librarian for more than ten years. I'm so grateful for the librarians that have helped me learn everything I carry with me up to today. I recently came across this 2018 title, Bark Park by Trudy Krisher, and it reminded me of my first years as a librarian. Both books are so much fun and would be wonderful to share in a dog-themed story time together.

A Bowl of Warm Soup

 Sometimes there's nothing like a bowl of warm soup to make you feel good. These picture books are excellent for sharing with young readers in a Soup themed story time, and will have you heading to the cupboard to see if you have ingredients to make these delicious soups.
