Illustrated by
Jacqueline East.
The books in this facile transitional-reader series focus on young animals delivering feel-good concepts: Cuddle Bunny's family muses "how boring would it be if we all looked alike?" And so on. Simple, repetitive language and candy-colored illustrations of adorable critters make the series effective for early readers who have a high tolerance for the saccharine. Discussion questions and writing prompts are appended. Glos. Review covers these Tiny Tales titles: Adeline Porcupine, Bobby Bear, Cuddle Bunny, and Lucy Goose.

The arrival and departure of ten construction vehicles is the context for this introduction to addition and subtraction. In the first half, each sturdy page is wider than the previous one-a visual reminder that, as each new vehicle arrives, the total number increases. Similarly, as building machines depart, the pages decrease in width. Related facts are presented with words, numerals, and illustrations, and each construction vehicle's function is described.
