EVE BUNTING is the author of many acclaimed books for young readers, including the Caldecott Medal–winning Smoky Night. She lives in Southern California.
DAGMAR FEHLAU has illustrated several books for children, including Snowbear's Winter Day. She lives in Shelton, Connecticut.
Kindergarten-Grade 2–In the first title, a versatile birthday gift plays games, performs tricks, bakes, and cleans. But with each activity, the child narrator indicates that this is not the best thing my robot can do. That refrain will have readers turning the pages of simple text just to discover the robot's most valued trait–friendship. A picnic story that is perfect fare for first-grade readers, Pond is about two friends whose outing is delayed when one doesn't feel well. Fortunately, Tess Tiger's umbrella and fan help Herbert Hippo cool off. She volunteers to go back for the picnic basket that he has forgotten. Returning with lunch in hand, she has a momentary fright when Herbert appears to be missing. But he's merely taking a dip and emerges from the water with an endearing big-toothed grin. Both titles have sufficient white space, illustrations that are pleasingly playful, and a craft activity. Nice additions for the easy-reader shelves.–Gloria Koster, West School, New Canaan, CT
