Although repetition is a wonderful way for young children to build language skills, reading the same book over and over again can be tiresome for parents and caregivers.
KDL is pleased to offer Beanstack, a resource that offers free personalized recommendations for children's books and apps. Check out this video to see how it works.

In I Don't Like Koala by Sean Ferrel, young Adam does not like his new stuffed toy. In fact, he dislikes Koala so much that he makes several attempts to dispose of this disturbing toy before learning to accept his cuddly (and slightly creepy) friend.
Our youth librarians don't like Koala either, but we do love this new picture book!
