Items related to My Beak, Your Beak
Animals can be very different from one another, but there are some ways in which they are just the same. Like penguins who live in the snowy South Pole and robins who live in the garden - they both catch their food in their pointy beaks! A fun and educational picture book with bold and vibrant illustrations ideal for the very young. Companion to My Nose, Your Nose.

From Booklist:
Reviewed with Melanie Walsh's My Nose, Your Nose.
PreS. Vibrant colors and simple shapes will attract toddlers to these two appealing titles about similarities and differences. My Beak uses animal contrasts: "Dachshunds are long with little legs. Dalmations are tall and spotty. But . . . they both love chasing sticks." My Nose shows a cast of multiethnic children: "Arthur's hair is brown and straight. Kit's hair is black and spikey. But . . . they both don't like shampoo." Little ones will enjoy the way the rhythmic texts pause on the dramatic But before the next page reveals how the animals and children are the same. It's Walsh's bold, simple paintings that will draw the most attention. Friendly, saturated hues--acid yellows, chocolate browns, and rich peaches--color the large, uncluttered spreads comprising basic shapes and minimal, childlike details. A bedtime message closes both titles. Suggest this to fans of Todd Parr's books. Gillian Engberg
