The Littlest Llama

If you have not yet read The Littlest Llama, I highly recommend that you give it a look. The book is written by Jane Buxton and is illustrated by Jenny Cooper. The book follows a little llama who is trying to find someone to play with. However, everyone he tries asks is too busy to play with him. Then the little llama sets out on a journey to find someone to play with. The book contains vivid illustrations of South American animals such as the chinchilla and Andean condor. Two spanish words are also incorporated into the text which can help children expand their vocabulary. The book is 30 pages long and is reccomended for children between the ages of 4 and 8. The book has a very satisfying ending and can be related to by all children. The book is especially good for preparing a child for the birth of a younger sibling.
