Illustrated by
Lauren Tobia.
These sturdy cardstock books (originally published in the UK) waste no space: the gently rough-and-tumble adventures of tots Billy and Bee span from endpaper to endpaper. The friends play and socialize (sans parents) at community playgroup and visit a complete but contained city farm. Singsong rhymes are bolstered by Tobia's wonderfully child-friendly illustrations, which highlight the diversity surrounding these urban toddlers. Review covers these titles: Let's Go to Playgroup and Let's Go to the Farm.
