Birdy's Smile Book

40 pp. | Holt/Ottaviano | September, 2010 | Trade ISBN 978-0-8050-8883-0 $16.99
(3) K-3 Birdy, a wide-eyed redhead with an expressive topknot ponytail, makes a book-length case for the smile, covering the health benefits of smiling, different kinds of smiles, etc.; at book's end, she's off to practice her grin, as can the reader, thanks to the mirror provided. Like Birdy, her costars are ebullient and Muppet-like--the right cast for this uplifting story.
