I am never quite sure what to expect from Julia Dweck, and was so surprised at how this story touched my heart. Beautifully illustrated, Donuts offers up, not just a fun read, but several important lessons. If you spend some time while reading this to your child, you will be able to talk about values like, friendship, courage to hang in there when things get rough, and how important it is to take care of our environment. Merl the squirrel is the best ambassador you can hope for to introduce such important lessons to your children. Like the Aesop's Fables of old, Donuts gives us something to talk about even after we are finished reading. Kudos to Adam Duff for his glorious illustrations that catch our attention and don't let go!  Don't miss Donuts!
