Hello Genius series

Hello Genius is a new series to me, despite being published by Capstone Press almost a year ago!  All of the books in the series were written by Michael Dahl and illustrated by Oriol Vidal. 

Absolutely love the series and the simple lessons each book teaches!  The books are also slightly repetitive, (enough so to be efficient, yet not overwhelming) and ideal for pre- and beginning readers!  Definitely want to get my hands on remaining 8 titles!!! 

From the back cover page:
This book promotes: self-care, animal recognition, speaking skills and first words

Children will likely enjoy the fact that Duck's way of using the potty chair is flying by and trying to aim!  At the end of the story, after Duck has learned to sit ON the potty chair, Mommy reminds him to wash his "feathers."

From the back cover page:
This book promotes: manners, first words, speaking skills and animal recognition

While at first little penguin is very demanding in attempting to get his needs met, Mommy (or Daddy) Penguin is adamant in insisting that little penguin say please first.  After a while, Little Penguin catches on and everyone's happy in the end.

Despite little bear being awfully demanding in having his needs met instead of being self-sufficient, he does use his manners, remembering to say thank you after all of his requests are met!

Little Pony wants to be "Just like Dad" - from eating a lot each day right down to brushing his teeth, Little Pony imitates dad's motion - learning an important aspect of self-hygiene in the process!
