Two-time Caldecott Honor artist and Coretta Scott King Medalist Brian
Pinkney's Time for Kenny is simple, direct, and pitch-perfect for
emerging readers. This vibrant, family-oriented picture book is full
of boundless energy, action, and unlimited love. A timeless choice for
fans of Laura Vaccaro Seeger, Christian Robinson, and Oge Mora.
Time for Kenny to get up and enjoy the day with his family! In four
deceptively simple stories, Brian Pinkney guides readers through a young
child's day. First, Kenny must get dressed. Maybe he can wear his mom's
shoes? And his grandpa's hat seems to fit perfectly on his head.
Luckily, with the help of his family, Kenny is finally set to go. Then
he must overcome his fear of the monstrous vacuum cleaner, learn to play
soccer with his big sister, and--after all that fun--get ready for
bedtime.
Bright, colorful, and energetic illustrations create a bold, accessible
book for families to treasure and share. Rhythm, repetition, and clear,
short sentences make Time for Kenny an excellent choice for emerging
readers.
