Also by Sloane Tanen: Coco Counts: A Little Chick's First Book of Numbers C is for Coco: A Little Chick's First Book of Letters Coco All Year Round by Sloane Tanen, photographs by Stefan Hagen Ages 4-8 32 pages Bloomsbury USA August 2006 Hardcover     Come on a yearlong journey with fluffy little Coco, a yellow chick who never fails to enchant and entertain in this delightful and eye-pleasing book. Little chicken Coco moves through each month accompanied by cute descriptive verse and hilarious photographed settings that create a playful book children will want to read again and again (my son made me read it three times in one sitting). Each month, kids get a glimpse into the world of Coco and her fuzzy, furry friends, whether it’s ice skating on the pool in January, going to Splashland in a sticky car in August, or making Gramma a ridiculous light-up hat for Christmas in December. The two-page scenes of Coco and friends will delight the eye and have kids finding new details they missed the first time. It’s also fun to spot little Coco in each scene, especially at Halloween. Filled with whimsy, humor and just plain good fun, Coco All Year Round not only teaches kids the months of the year but does so with laugh-out-loud text and images they will want to experience all year long.   web reviews   Marie D.
