Little White Rabbit Board Book (2014)

Kevin Henkes is such a versatile author/illustrator. He has written novels, picture books, and chapter books. I believe he has mastered the art of the picture book. He uses framing and full-bleed photos throughout this book. The pastel colors are so vibrant and appear to be done in colored pencil...

Junonia (2011)

I loved so much about this sweet and quietly sophisticated story for children. Two beefs, one of which is outside of the author's control: the setting of Sanibel Island. Ugh. Double, triple ugh. The second beef is about the character of Alice (love the name!) who is a quiet and serious turning-t...

If you pick a flower another grows back right away. The rabbits are all edible chocolate and anything you plant...

Old Bear Board Book (2011)

My favorite book written by Kevin Henkes is Old Bear. I chose Old Bear for many reasons.First, I liked the illustrations because they were full of vivid color. Also, different colors were used for each season. For example, Mr. Henkes used light blues and white for winter. These color represented ...

Penny and Her Song (2012)

I am a big fan of Kevin Henkes! I really have enjoyed all of his books. This book is different from the others, it is set up as a chapter book. This book also does not have much plot. In other words, there is no problem and solution. It is simply a story of a "family," saying what normal familie...

Penny and Her Doll (2012)

I liked and disliked this book. It didn't really interest me, but I did pick out a few meanings it the story that could be relatable for young readers. The one part of the story that stuck out to me the most, was the fact of how happy Penny was when she received her doll. I remember when a simple...

Two Under Par (2005)

This book is pathetic in my opinion. It is depressing and ridiculous. I am sorry let me rephrase myself it was not depressing because it did not even phase me. That`s my opinion.

Words of Stone (2005)

Kevin Henkes is a remarkable novelist. His descriptions of everyday life and the ostensibly mundane events that go on around us all the time elevate those little moments to become miniaturized works of art in the eye of the thoughtful reader. His feel for the nuances of the English language is ex...

The Birthday Room (2001)

There's just something about Kevin Henkes's novels that one doesn't find anywhere else. It's as if the characters that he creates are so real to him as he's writing them that fabricating a dramatic story to make their lives seem more interesting to readers would strike him as inappropriate orname...
