Spotlight Friday: 2017 Picture Books 12.30.16

Time to get ready for the weekend!

Kick up your feet and find a good place to read.

Sharing #booklove for your classroom or library.

Spotlighting a book or two because these books deserve the spotlight!

Hard to believe that we're looking at the start of a new year!

I don't know about you, but I'm ready for 2017!

Especially for the books.

This week I'll be spotlighting books to come.

I have pages written in my notebook for each month.

Pulling out just a few over the next few days.  

Lots more to come in 2017!

Today, picture book fun!
