When Llama Llama meets his new neighbor, Nelly Gnu, he's excited, and a bit nervous. His mom reminds him to share before he shows her his toys, but Nelly starts to play her own games. Llama watches from the sidelines, worried about his things. Nelly starts to build a castle, and that seems fun, so he joins in. Things are going smoothly until Fuzzy Llama winds up in Nelly Gnu's hands. What will happen to Fuzzy Llama? Can Nelly Gnu and Llama Llama be friends? Will Llama Llama learn how to share? You will have to read this delightful children's picture book to find out!
Llama Llama: Time to Share by Anna Dewdney is a wonderful children's picture book! Margo was right there with Llama when Nelly took Fuzzy Llama to play a game, and I could feel her grasping tightly onto her stuffed pony, Mr. Fazzy. The illustrations in this book are brilliant, and we felt like we were right there in the scenes. The Llama Llama books are written in rhyme and will enchant children with the fun word play. Margo and I had a blast reading together, and we're definitely going to pick up another Llama Llama story soon!
Has anyone else read
Llama Llama: Time to Share or any of the other Llama Llama books? We'd love to hear your thoughts!
Stop by this Friday for an exclusive interview with
author/ illustrator Anna Dewdney to find out more about the story behind the story. :)
Happy reading!

Sounds like a cute picture book. Makes me want to have another little one to share it with.
ReplyDeleteNatalie- This is a fun book little ones will love. :) ~F
DeleteSuch a sweet little book, Barbara
ReplyDeleteBarbara- Isn't it? :) ~F
DeleteCan't wait for the interview. I've seen a lot of animals depicted in picture books, but I can't recall ever seeing one about a llama.
ReplyDeleteStephanie- I agree with you that a llama is unique! :) ~F
DeleteLove the llama llama sound. Kids must get such a kick out of just saying that.
ReplyDeleteLee- Definitely lots of fun! :) ~F
DeleteYou know, the part I'm looking forward to most (well, equal with other parts) of having this baby, is an excuse to get back to picture books. There are so many amazing/adorable ones, and as long as I have a kid to read them to, I'll spend hours doing just that.
ReplyDeleteCrystal- I am sure you are going to have such a blast getting back to picture books. You and your baby will make sweet memories together reading. :) ~F
DeleteWhat a great idea to have a llama who has a stuffed llama as a toy! After all, people have baby-dolls. Sharing is an important message. Good luck to Anna! :)
ReplyDeleteLexa- I think it is an important message and one that often needs to be reviewed over and over again! :) ~F
DeleteI haven't read any Llama Llama books, but I think I will now. I just looked at them over on Amazon and so many of them look cute and interesting. I love the illustrations.
ReplyDeleteRosi- I love the illustrations too! The rhymes are a ton of fun! Enjoy! :) ~F

DeleteI haven't read Llama Llama yet... I think it would make a cute birthday gift for my grandson, especially since he has a sister on the way... he is really excited but he will have to learn to share xox
ReplyDeleteLauna- Then this would be the perfect book for him. He will love Llama Llama and he will start to learn to share. :) ~F

DeleteMy daughter is too old for these books now, but she loved them when she was younger. They're really cute.
ReplyDeleteKelly- They are cute! Glad your daughter enjoyed them when she was younger. :) ~F
DeleteI've heard good things about these picture books and I'm glad you enjoyed this one with your daughter. Sharing is important, but a favorite toy is another matter. ;)
ReplyDeleteMolly- Sharing a favorite toy is definitely harder than just regular sharing! :) ~F
DeleteI have a 2 year old grandson who I buy books for. This looks awesome.
ReplyDeleteMary- If he it two- he is sure to love the Llama Llama series! :) ~F
DeleteI haven't read this one, but I love the other llama books. I used to do Pajama Party Story Times to promote my book, That Baby Woke Me Up, AGAIN, and Llama Llama Red Pajama was always one I read along with mine.
ReplyDeleteSherry- How fun! I love that LLama Llama book! I bet it was great to read it along with That Baby Woke Me Up, AGAIN! :) ~F

ReplyDeleteI see these at the library all the time, but I've never read any of them. I think my niece would love the books though!
ReplyDeleteShooting Stars Mag- They are short and sweet- you could read one on your next trip to the library. Your niece will probably love them. All the younger kids I know love this series! :) ~F
DeleteI read "Llama Llama Misses Mama" several years ago. I thought it was very sweet. This series sounds like a good educational one for young kids. Looking forward to the interview!
ReplyDeleteClaudine- I haven't read the one you mentioned, but it sounds very cute. The whole series is lots of fun and the rhymes are very appealing to kids. :) ~F

ReplyDeleteI love children's books reviews. A friend is having her 1st child & I want to get her a few nice books to start her babies library.
