Song: Hello, Friends

(using ASL, to the tune of Goodnight, Ladies)

Hello, friends! Hello, friends!

Hello, friends! It’s time to say hello!

Song: Open Them, Shut Them

Open them, shut them, open them, shut them.

Give a little clap, clap, clap!

Open them, shut them, open them, shut them.

Put them in your lap, lap, lap!

Creep them, creep them, slowly creep them,

Right up to your chin, chin, chin!

Open wide your little mouth,

But do not let them in!

Song: Ten Little Fingers

I have ten little fingers, and they all belong to me. (point to self)

I can make them do things. Do you want to see? (point to eyes)

I can squeeze them up tight. I can open them up wide. (squeeze hands shut, then open them)

I can put them together. I can make them all hide. (clap, then hide hands behind back)

I can make them jump high. I can make them jump low. (wiggle fingers above head, then reach down)

I can fold them up quietly and hold them just so. (fold hands and place on lap)

Book: Boxitects

Written by Kim Smith and published by Clarion Books.

Song: Tiny Tim

I have a little turtle, his name is Tiny Tim. (hold hands like a turtle)

I put him in the bathtub, to see if he could swim. (make swimming motion with hands)

He drank up all the water. Glug, glug, glug! (act like you’re drinking from a cup)

He ate up all the soap. Mmm, mmm, mmm! (act like you’re shoving food in your mouth)

And now he’s home, sick in bed, with bubbles in his throat. (lay head down on hands)

Bubble, bubble, bubble,

Bubble, bubble, pop!

Bubble, bubble, bubble,

Bubble, bubble, pop!

Book: Jabari Tries

Written by Gaia Cornwall and published by Candlewick Press.

Song: One Little Red Fish

One little red fish swimming in the water, (hold up one finger, then put hands together to make fish)

Swimming in the water, swimming in the water.

One little red fish swimming in the water,

Bubble bubble bubble bubble pop! (swirl hands in the air upwards and clap above head)

Two little blue fish…

Three little yellow fish…

Book: Ned the Knitting Pirate

Written by Diana Murray and published by Roaring Brook Press (Macmillan Publishers).

Craft: Paper Plate Maze

Pick up a craft kit from the Youth Services Department or the drive-up window while supplies last.

Included:

Paper plate
Pipe cleaner pieces
Pompom
Bead

Not included:

Thumbtack, pen, or pencil to poke holes

Instructions:

Poke holes throughout the paper plate using a thumbtack, pen, or pencil. You might want to ask your grown-up for help with this.
Poke the ends of your pipe cleaner pieces through different holes so that it lies flat on the paper plate. Try to create a path through the pipe cleaners like a maze. Make it as easy or as hard as you want!
Put something on the plate and tilt the plate to guide it through the maze. We’ve included a pompom and a bead, but you can try anything you have lying around! Maybe a marble, bottle cap, or eraser.
Take out the pipe cleaners and rearrange your maze as many times as you’d like! For an extra challenge, put in a pipe cleaner and don’t pull it flat, leaving it in an arch. Try and get your bead or pompom through the arch!

Song: I am Special

(to the tune of Frere Jacques)

I am special, I am special, (point to self)

You can see, you can see. (point away from self)

Someone very special, someone very special, (hold hands out in questioning motion)

That is me, that is me. (point to self)

FDL Reads: Waiting for Tom Hanks

Waiting for Tom Hanks by Kerry Winfrey

Reviewed by: Dawn Dickey

Genre: Romance

Suggested Age: Adults

What is This Book About?: Freelance writer Annie makes a living writing web content while penning a romantic comedy in her spare time. Rom-coms (especially Nora Ephron tales starring Tom Hanks) are her favorite type of movie. Rom-coms are also her link with her deceased mother, who shared her own love of the film genre with Annie. One day, Annie’s friend Chloe is thrilled to read that a movie is going to be filmed nearby, starring heartthrob Drew Danforth. Chloe thinks that, with Annie’s degree in film studies, a job at this film site could be the perfect opportunity for Annie. Surprisingly, the two friends find that Annie’s guardian Uncle Don is acquainted with the film’s director. Uncle Don makes a call, and voilà! Annie lands a job on the film set as the director’s assistant. Before Annie even begins her job, an unexpected sidewalk collision with star Drew Danforth results in an embarrassed Annie and a coffee-stained coat for the star. Chloe insists that this collision is Annie’s “meet-cute,” and that this is the start of Annie’s very own romantic comedy, with Drew playing the role of Annie’s very own Tom Hanks.

My Review: This lively tale gives you all the trials, tribulations, and joys of a true romantic comedy. The characters doubt (does he like me?), and they flirt, argue, make mistakes, and split up. Romantic comedies do take a certain distancing from reality in order to accept their would-this-actually-happen-in-real-life situations. But we all dream, we all hope that there is love and kindness and romance in the world. That’s where this book excels. You’ll want to read the book to find out if Annie and Drew really do have their happily-ever-after ending.

Three Words That Describe This Book: quirky, romantic, funny

Give This a Try if You Like… romantic comedies (You’ve Got Mail, When Harry Met Sally), or books like Would Like to Meet by Rachel Winters or Meet Cute by Helena Hunting

Rating: 5/5

#FDL: Notable Novels for Black History Month

Check out one of these novels during Black History Month. This is what publishers and reviewers have said about these notable books written by Black authors last year:

Transcendent Kingdom by Yaa Gyasi
“Transcendent Kingdom is a deeply moving portrait of a family of Ghanaian immigrants ravaged by depression and addiction and grief–a novel about faith, science, religion, love. Exquisitely written, emotionally searing, this is an exceptionally powerful follow-up to Gyasi’s phenomenal debut.”

Everywhere You Don’t Belong by Gabriel Bump
“Claude just wants a place where he can fit. As a young black man born on the South Side of Chicago, he is raised by his civil rights era grandmother who tries to shape him into a principled actor for change; yet when riots consume his neighborhood, he hesitates to take sides, unwilling to let race define his life. He decides to escape Chicago for another place, to go to college, to find a new identity, to leave the pressure cooker of his hometown behind. But as he discovers, he cannot; there is no safe haven for a young black man in this time and place called America.”

Deacon King Kong by James McBride
“When a young drug lord is shot in broad daylight by a bumbling drunk known to everyone as Sportcoat, the Brooklyn neighborhood they live in is upended. As Sportcoat comically and unknowingly dodges the police, his actions ricochet around him, igniting a web of drug wars, backdoor dealings with mobsters, and church brawls that demonstrate just how vital yet fragile communities can be.”

The City We Became by N.K. Jemisin
“In Manhattan, a young grad student gets off the train and realizes he doesn’t remember who he is, where he’s from, or even his own name. But he can sense the beating heart of the city, see its history, and feel its power. In the Bronx, a Lenape gallery director discovers strange graffiti scattered throughout the city, so beautiful and powerful it’s as if the paint is literally calling to her. In Brooklyn, a politician and mother finds she can hear the songs of her city, pulsing to the beat of her Louboutin heels. And they’re not the only ones.”

The Vanishing Half by Brit Bennett
“Weaving together multiple strands and generations of this family, from the Deep South to California, from the 1950s to the 1990s, Brit Bennett produces a story that is at once a riveting, emotional family story and a brilliant exploration of the American history of passing. Looking well beyond issues of race, The Vanishing Half considers the lasting influence of the past as it shapes a person’s decisions, desires, and expectations, and explores some of the multiple reasons and realms in which people sometimes feel pulled to live as something other than their origins.”

Such a Fun Age by Kiley Reid

“A striking and surprising debut novel from an exhilarating new voice, Such a Fun Age is a page-turning and big-hearted story about race and privilege, set around a young black babysitter, her well-intentioned employer, and a surprising connection that threatens to undo them both.”

Fairy Tales with a Twist

Fairy tales are fun to read, but a lot of them are basically telling the same story: a princess is put in danger by an evil villain, and a prince comes to her rescue and marries her.

Don’t you wish those stories were a little different?

Lots of people have felt that way over the years, and there are tons of new versions of classic tales available these days. Now you can explore worlds where princesses aren’t helpless, and so-called “villains” tell their side of the story. You can also read a version of Cinderella where everyone’s a chicken! Books like these encourage readers to look at familiar stories from another perspective and teach them that all types of people (or animals) are capable of being the hero. Check one out and imagine a different kind of happily ever after!

The Princess Doesn’t Need Saving:

Princeless series by Jeremy Whitley

Princess Princess Ever After by Katie O’Neill (also available on hoopla)

Ninja-rella by Joey Comeau

Sleeping Bobby by Mary Pope Osborne and Will Osborne

Don’t Kiss the Frog!: Princess Stories with Attitude by Fiona Waters

The Villain is the Hero:

Seriously, Cinderella Is SO Annoying! by Tricia Speed Shaskan (also available as audiobook on hoopla)

Honestly, Red Riding Hood Was Rotten! by Tricia Speed Shaskan (also available as audiobook on hoopla)

Trust Me, Jack’s Beanstalk Stinks! by Eric Braun (also available as audiobook on hoopla)

Red Riding Hood and the Sweet Little Wolf by Rachel Mortimer

Everyone’s an Animal:

Cinders: A Chicken Cinderella by Jan Brett

Princess Pigtoria and the Pea by Pamela Duncan Edwards

Hamster Princess series by Ursula Vernon (also available as audiobook on hoopla)

A Quick and Easy Guide to They/Them Pronouns

A Quick & Easy Guide to They/Them Pronouns by Archie Bongiovanni and Tristan Jimerson

Reviewer: Cindy, Youth Services Assistant

Genre: Nonfiction Graphic Novel

Suggested Age: 10 & up

What is This Book About? This short comic book is exactly what it sounds like. It tells you how to use the gender-neutral pronouns “they” and “them” when referring to one person. It also briefly introduces readers to nonbinary identities and includes tips for people coming out as nonbinary.

My Review: This is a great resource for teachers, managers, parents, or pretty much anyone. I definitely recommend this book to people who have only vaguely heard of gender-neutral pronouns but don’t understand why some people use them or what any of this means. Many of us were raised not really knowing that gender neutral pronouns are an option, so it can seem like kind of a foreign concept at first. This book shows that the whole thing is actually really simple and necessary and can become second nature after some practice. If for some reason you feel that reading a graphic novel is a little too juvenile for you, try reading some other books about people who use gender neutral pronouns, such as the ones listed below, or check out Merriam-Webster’s short article on they/them pronouns. There are increasingly more resources available on this topic, but this one is, like the title suggests, quick and easy.

Three Words That Describe This Book: Quick, Easy, Informative

Give This a Try if You Like… I Wish You All the Best by Mason Deaver, Gender Failure by Ivan Coyote & Rae Spoon, Finna by Nino Cipri

Rating: 5/5

Powerful Documentaries for Black History Month

Sometimes experiencing history through a documentary is more impactful than reading a book, and there are so many good documentaries available now! Here are some of the best films about Black history and Black experiences, available to check out on DVD or stream from hoopla with your FDL card.

The Black Panthers: Vanguard of the Revolution

This is the first feature length documentary to explore the Black Panther Party, its significance to the broader American culture, its cultural and political awakening for black people, and the painful lessons wrought when a movement derails.

Dark Girls

This fascinating and controversial film goes underneath the surface to explore the prejudices dark-skinned women face throughout the world. Also available on hoopla.

Driving While Black

Melding new archival research with her family’s story, Gretchen Sorin recovers a lost history, demonstrating how, when combined with black travel guides—including the famous Green Book—the automobile encouraged a new way of resisting oppression.

Eyes on the Prize

The most critically acclaimed documentary on civil rights in America recounts the fight to end decades of discrimination and segregation.

Freedom Riders

Renowned director Stanley Nelson chronicles the inspirational story of American civil rights activists’ peaceful fight against racial segregation on buses and trains in the 1960s. Also available on hoopla.

I Am Not Your Negro

Filmmaker Raoul Peck envisions the book James Baldwin never finished, Remember This House, that was to be a revolutionary, personal account of the lives and assassinations of three of his close friends: Medgar Evers, Malcolm X and Martin Luther King, Jr. It is a journey into black history that connects the Civil Rights movement to #BlackLivesMatter. Also available on hoopla.

John Lewis: Good Trouble

An intimate account of legendary U.S. Representative John Lewis’ life, legacy and more than 60 years of extraordinary activism – from the bold teenager on the front lines of the Civil Rights movement to the legislative powerhouse. Also available on hoopla.

Slavery by Another Name

This documentary challenges one of Americans’ most cherished assumptions – the belief that slavery in this country ended with the Emancipation Proclamation – by telling the harrowing story of how in the South, a new system of involuntary servitude took its place with shocking force. Also available on hoopla as a Bonus Borrow for February.

Tell Them We are Rising

The latest documentary from Stanley Nelson (Black Panthers, Freedom Riders) and Marco Williams, the powerful story of the rise, influence, and evolution of Historically Black Colleges and Universities comes to life.

Only on hoopla:

The Central Park Five

This film from award-winning filmmaker Ken Burns tells the story of the five black and Latino teenagers from Harlem who were wrongly convicted of raping a white woman in New York City’s Central Park in 1989. The film chronicles the Central Park jogger case, for the first time from the perspective of the five young men whose lives were upended by this miscarriage of justice. Part of hoopla’s Bonus Borrows collection for February.

I am MLK, Jr.

Following his journey across the mountaintops and valleys while capturing the Civil Rights Movement at large, the film provides intimate, first hand insights on Dr. King, exploring moments of personal challenge and elation, and an ongoing movement that is as important today as when Dr. King first shone a light on the plight of his fellow African Americans.

The Loving Story

A racially charged criminal trial and a heartrending love story converge in this documentary about Mildred and Richard Loving, set during the turbulent Civil Rights era. Part of hoopla’s Bonus Borrows collection for February.

Maya Angelou: And Still I Rise

This film celebrates Dr. Maya Angelou by weaving her words with rare and intimate archival photographs and videos, which paint hidden moments of her exuberant life during some of America’s most defining moments.

Black History Month for Kids

There are so many ways to learn about history and so many books to read that it’s hard to know where to begin, but since Black History Month is about learning and celebrating the history of Black Americans, it’s important to focus on resources created by Black Americans. The recommendations listed below will help you get started in teaching your kids/students/self the names of some great authors and major historical figures, and they’re broken down into sections to make it easier for you to find suitable material for different age groups. All of these books are written by Black authors and a lot of them can also be found in eBook and/or audiobook format. Of course, this is by no means a comprehensive list of everything available, so after you’ve read a few books, keep looking for more Black authors and stories.

Pre-K

For babies and toddlers, keep things simple with picture books that celebrate Black lives and culture:

Superheroes are Everywhere by Kamala Harris

Bedtime Bonnet by Nancy Redd

The King of Kindergarten by Derrick Barnes

Grandma’s Purse by Vanessa Brantley-Newton

Baby Says by John Steptoe

Whose Knees Are These? by Jabari Asim

Who Will You Be? by Andrea Pippins

The Night is Yours by Abdul-Razak Zachariah

Grades 1-3

Start by reading The Undefeated by Kwame Alexander, then seek out these authors:

– Carole Boston Weatherford to learn about Aretha Franklin, Fannie Lou Hamer, Arturo Schomburg, John Coltrane, and Jesse Owens

– Andrea Davis Pinkney to learn about Alvin Ailey, Duke Ellington, Ella Fitzgerald, and the Woolworth’s lunch counter sit-ins

– Lesa Cline-Ransom to learn about Harriet Tubman, Langston Hughes, Louis Armstrong, and Major Taylor.

Continue the fun with MLK Jr. and Rosa Parks coloring pages, and read some Own Voices fiction:

MLK Jr coloring page

Rosa Parks coloring page

Mommy’s Khimar by Jamilah Thompkins-Bigelow

Hair Love by Matthew A. Cherry

Black is a Rainbow Color by Angela Joy

Tallulah the Tooth Fairy CEO by Tamara Pizzoli

– Brave, Black, First: 50+ African American Women Who Changed the World by Cheryl Willis Hudson

– The Fierce 44: Black Americans Who Shook Up the World by The Undefeated.

Then look for books by Duchess Harris to learn more in-depth information about the 13^th Amendment, The Harlem Renaissance, Black Lives Matter, and the history of hip-hop.

If you need homeschooling resources, Scholastic has an online history lesson about African American inventors, and the National Archives and Library of Congress have tons of useful material, including primary sources.

Continue celebrating the month by reading these works of fiction:

Isaiah Dunn is My Hero by Kelly J. Baptist

The Last Mirror on the Left by Lamar Giles
