From Here to There

From Here to There is a picture book about how a road is built, a topic preschoolers love. The author is a teacher with experience reading to young children, and her expertise shows up in her book. From Here to There works very well as a read-aloud. It has lots of sound words (bump, bump bump) and a good sense of rhythm. Not too much text on each page, just enough to keep the action going. It's a natural for preschool storytime or one-on-one story sharing.
