The Wicked Big Toddlah by Kevin Hawkes.

This rollicking book is guaranteed to have small children listening intently.  It is the story of Toddie, a brand new baby who is very special.  He is huge!  He is brought home on a flatbed truck, takes baths in the ocean, and eats ice cream by the truckful (literally!)

The text of the book is key to its success.  Done in a matter-of-fact style, the words don’t speak to the size of Toddie at all.  Instead they are all about normal baby things:  dirty diapers, baths, eating solids, starting to walk, etc.  Nothing in the text gives away the antics of the illustrations.  The illustrations are large, colorful and spectacular.  Toddie is amazing in his large size, great enthusiasm, and broad humor. 

Recommended for ages 3-6.  Highly recommended for reading aloud.  This book is a guaranteed read aloud winner.
