This is it! Our last list for 2016. Our favourite children's non-fiction. The non-fiction list always fun because it covers such a wide range of topics, including a cookbok, science, spooky stories, a folk tale, poetry and more! Please let us know if you have any questions, or need book recommendations. The Children’s & Teen Services team reads a lot, and we are always happy to share our favourite books. We’re already looking forward to the books of 2017. And, the lists continue! We read a lot of good children's novels this year, with a wide range of themes and lots of colourful characters. Here are ten favourite... We also read some really good graphic novels. We haven't had a graphic novel category in past years, but this year three were submitted, so I thought they deserve a special mention. This is a bittersweet list for us. It is the last time an Elephant & Piggie book will be on the list. There has been an Elephant & Piggie book on this list every year since they debuted in 2007. Starting with There is a Bird on Your Head, we have been huge fans and have put the series into the hands of many young readers. The Thank You Book marks the end of the series, but I am sure Mo Willems will be back with lots of fun books full of new and memorable characters. Fortunately, there are lots of great books to make up our list. Please enjoy our favourite easy readers... Here at Kitchener Public Library we LOVE picture books. When I asked the Children's & Teen Services team to send me a list of their favourite books of the year, I received 38 titles! 2016 was clearly a great year for picture books. I have whittled it down to a top ten list, which was not easy. Scroll through the covers below. Click on the ones that capture your imagination. Put a few on hold. They will make your day brighter. |
