POSTS STORIES REELS

Poo-Dunit? 💩🔍
by Katelyn Aronson
illustrated by Stephanie Laberis

🐭 Mouse steps outside and finds a GIANT pile of poo on her doorstep.

Who did it?! 😱

Now she has to sniff out the culprit, one rhyming clue at a time.

🔬 It’s a whodunit AND a science lesson. Kids learn to tell scat from different animals and why poo is good for the forest.

😂 Funny and factual, the best combo!

🧩 Don’t skip the back matter. There’s a match-the-poo-to-the-animal quiz!

📚 Fun fact: Katelyn is a former children’s bookseller. She grew up in California and now lives in France. 🇫🇷

🏆 It also won the 2025 Nevada Young Readers’ Award!

Rex Rating: 🦴🦴🦴🦴🦴

Perfect for read-alouds and for anyone who still giggles at the word “poo” (me, 🙋‍♀️).

Shhh... more book recs coming! 🐶

A SHARK. On a FARM. 🦈🚜

Farm Shark by Bill Canterbury, illustrated by Maddie Frost, is a laugh-out-loud read-aloud for ages 3-7. The animals are not handling their surprise farm guest well, and the dialogue is pure silly fun. I used every voice I own. 🎭

Fun fact: the author has written for The Simpsons, and you can tell. 😂

📚 Perfect for: storytime, bedtime, reluctant readers, and anyone who needs a giggle!
