Easy to read with really great illustrations. This book is aimed for when children are losing their teeth, but I read it to my three year old and he was pretty captivated by the pictures.

Totally adorable, and similar to how a child losing a tooth might feel!

One day, Wade the young moose notices that his antlers are wiggly. He absolutely does not want to loose his antlers, they are good for so many things! Mom tells Wade that this is just part of growing up, but Wade still wants to keep his antlers as long as possible. So, Wade decides to sit out on all of the fun things that his friends are doing in order to keep his antlers longer.

A cute story of growing up and dealing with change. Wade and his antlers are a perfect way to discuss changes that might be happening in young children, like loosing a tooth. Wade handles change like anyone else might and there are a lot of good discussion points to have with children. Overall, Wade decides that change is good and growing up isn't all that bad. I love pretty much anything with a moose, and Wade was adorable as were all of his forest friends. My son is a little too young to appreciate the lesson from this book, but he enjoyed looking at the cute illustrations and we named the animals of the forest. He also enjoyed when I made the trumpeting sounds!.

Wade's antlers are suddenly wiggly. His Mom says that he will lose them, but he isn't ready for that. I loved the bright and colorful illustrations. Wade's Wiggly Antlers is a win for a parent looking for storybook for children who are nervous about growing older.

I was provided an ARC from NetGalley.

Wade loves his antlers, but it is almost time for him to shed them. At first, he notices they are loose and tries to be very careful so they will stay on, but he realizes he can't participate in any of the fun activities with his friends if he is trying so hard to be careful. This story has cute illustrations and a positive message about changing and growing. It is also great for a winter read due to the setting.

Note: I received a free copy of this book from NetGalley. I was not compensated in any other fashion for the review and the opinions reflected below are entirely my own. Special thanks to the publisher and author for providing the copy.
