When You Take a Step di Bethanie Deeney Murguia
book for primary students. a short story about what happens when you take a step. The story is very inclusive and shows all different types of people. Every motivational story and great for all primary students.
The rhyming text is great to read aloud and each spread invites readers to choose their own favorites among colors, pets, treats, hats, plants, instruments, and more.
"Hey, look - it's a horse in a hat."
The "horse" trots off on a solo journey, accompanied by the invisible narrator, who keeps denying that the unicorn is a horse in disguise. Clever illustrations make either answer plausible; a final spread shows horses/unicorns moving through a field of tall grass in silhouette, with the blades of grass standing in for horns - or maybe they really are horns. "Maybe you can only see unicorns...if you believe in them." The final illustration shows the same scene as the first, with a barn door half-open, a weathervane with a horse in a hat, and a lizard (front page) that's actually a tiny dragon (last page).

I read this book to my 5-year-old neighbor, Everleigh. Although she was initially a bit confused at first as to why I kept saying "to/too/two" so much, her final review was, "Like it." She especially enjoyed the cockatoos in tutus and the toucans doing the can-can.
Note: I received an autographed hardcover from the publisher at ALA Midwinter 2016.
