November 3rd is Sandwich Day! There are lots of books out there about making the perfect sandwich, but this one was different and caught my eye: The Bear Ate Your Sandwich, by Julia Sarcone-Roach. A sandwich is missing, but just who ate it? Follow along this delightful ... 'explanation' ... of why there's nothing left of said sandwich but a wee bit of lettuce. Be sure to check out the bear in the park. :-)

At the Same Moment, Around the World, by Clotilde Perrin is an amazing way to show children the various time zones. Starting in Senegal it shows what a child may be doing at the same time. Wonderful illustrations. I love how the first and last pictures work so well together. :-) At the end is a brief history of how we keep time and a fold out map. This book would go well with While You Are Sleeping: a Lift the Flap Book of Time Around the World found in the October 6, 2015 post.
