For all of the shows in our educational TV/DVD Series, we develop our Recommended Book Lists and Potluck of Fun™. The selections in our Recommended Book Lists are meticulously chosen by children’s literature expert,
Dr. Miriam Marecek, and connect with topics and themes that emerge from show content. A Potluck of Fun is developed by Words That Cook staff for each book recommendation and provides entertaining and engaging ideas to make the books spring to life. Click on the links below to see each show’s Recommended Book List and Potluck of Fun.
