BUYING ADVISORY: Pre-K, EL (K-3) – ADVISABLE
AUDIENCE APPEAL: AVERAGE
Stanley the guinea pig and his other rodent friends show you the behind the scenes of the local bakery. Starting with grinding the wheat to make flour, to incorporating the different ingredients, to selling the finished products, you can see every part of the process, including a special surprise!
This was my first Stanley book. From what I understand, there is a whole series of simple stories with our eponymous hero doing different jobs. I really liked the brightly colored modern digital illustrations and the retrained text - it does a good job of demonstrating the day in the life of a baker, while still being engaging for young readers. I could see this book being used as part of a career exploration unit or lesson.
