I read Harriet Can Carry It by Kirk Jay Mueller
I received a free ARC from Star Bright Books through NetGalley
5 stars
Harriet's job is to carry stuff. One day, she decided to take a day to go to the beach with her little Joey. On the way, a pushy friend invites herself, and lets everyone else come along too. The problem is, they all have items they need Harriet to carry. Soon, her day off is more like a work day. When she gets fed up with it all, what will happen?
I like this one! The rhyming text helps the book flow. With some repetition, this makes it an even better read aloud. Kids will be excited to see what animal comes next and how much Harriet is able to carry. It is an introduction to a good lesson on helping others, but not trying to do too much. Sometimes we just need a break, and that is okay. The illustrations are cute and go along with the story. This story won me over!
