Gertie is GREAT at being the littlest yak, with the curliest, whirliest wool and the grippiest of hooves for clip-clopping up cliffs. Only, Gertie doesn’t want to be the littlest. She’s in a rush to grow up and be just like the big yaks. But what if there are some things that only a Gertie can do?

“A verdant tale of leaves, language, and most importantly, love.” — Molly Idle (author-illustrator of Pearl ; Flora and the Flamingo ) “Much like an encouraging word, Gracey’s vibrant pictures will lift you up.” — Christian Robinson (author-illustrator of Another ; illustrator of Last Stop on Market Street ) “A touching fantasy rooted in reality. Gracey’s art recalls children’s books masters...Ludwig Bemelmans, Roger Duvoisin, David Small. Yet it’s fresh and lovely and something that hasn’t been seen before.” — LeUyen Pham (illustrator of Bear Came Along ; Grace for President ) “ Lala’s Words is really about magic; a special kind of magic called kindness. Like the sunlight and the falling rain, kindness nourishes the world around us. This book, with its lovely art and whimsical story, will also nourish the reader.” — The Fan Brothers (author-illustrators of Ocean Meets Sky ; The Night Gardener )

FAMILY TIME

Alma and How She Got Her Name Juana Martinez-Neal Before Reading Read the title and look at the illustration on the front cover. Then read the text on the back of the book. Together, talk about your own full names. Are your names long? While Reading As you read, pause to discuss what is happening in the story. Why does Alma think that her name is too long? Invite your child to count how many names Alma has. What does Alma’s father mean when he says that Alma can decide if her name “fits”? How can someone’s name fit? As Alma’s father tells her the story of her names, ask your child to describe how Alma is feeling. Encourage your child to describe how Alma connects with (compares herself to) each relative for whom she’s named. After Reading Share what you know about your own names. Discuss whether you feel like your names “fit” you, and why or why not. Just for fun, share another name you think might fit you. Literacy Tip Remind your child that proper names, like Alma, Sofia, Esperanza, etc., always begin with a capital letter. (Sentences start with capital letters too!) Thumb through the book and invite your child to point out the capital letters in the text. Want to make it a challenge? Invite your child to count the capital letters on each page!
