It is the birthday of author/illustrator Peter McCarty. It is timely that his birthday is now because he has a couple of picture books about monsters ideal in these pre-Halloween days. See Jeremy Draws a Monster and The Monster Returns. In my library though he is known for his lovely book about pets, a dog Hondo and a cat, Fabian. And just recently he has published a new book Chloe, revisiting a character from one of his earlier books. All of these are worth checking out!

About Me
- kinderbooks
- I'm a teacher/librarian in an early childhood school library. The library caters for 3-8 year old children, their teachers and their parents. My aim here is to showcase at least one book each day until there is ' a year in a Prep School Library'. Usually the date will be the birthday of someone who is connected with Children's Literature. I have met my initial challenge to write about a book every day, so now I write much more intermittently when I have learned of a new birthday, special day, have had a wonderful teaching moment or have found a great new book.
