We are focusing this week on picture books and children’s literature. Our featured book this week is Too Much: My Great Big Native Family by Laurel Goodluck and Bridget George. Goodluck tells the story of young Russell who shines brightly when cast in his school play. When he tries to share the casting news with his huge loud family, getting their attention is nearly impossible. His boisterous family is just too noisy and too much! Venturing out on his own, Russell decides that being alone is not always the answer. His large loving family steps in at just the right moment when Russell needs them the most. For more amazing titles, check out the list below!
