Miss Bilby & Stuck
'Miss Bilby' by Colin Thiele
This picture book has text that not only rhymes, but that details important information about Bilbies and in particular, their endangerment. The story describes the real threats that Bilbies encounter and the positive impact that humans can have on endangered species. The pictures are simple, but beautiful and compliment the story well. A beautifully written story with an important message.
'Stuck' by Oliver Jeffers
This book is a cute and fun story that has gorgeous artwork to go along with it. If you really look for a message in this book, you could say that it is about thinking before acting, but I really just saw it as an entertaining story that children will enjoy. The text looks handwritten and some sentences and words are bigger than others to emphasize different points. All in all, this book is a bit of fun; both to read and look at.
