Allison Investigates by Nicoletta

Allison Investigates; Does Chocolate Milk Come From Brown Cows, Written and Illustrated by Colette Omans Nicoletta is a wonderful books for kids of all ages! The words per page are few enough to keep an active two year old interested. At the same time, the content is unique enough to keep older kids attentive as well.  The book, about how chocolate milk is made, reminds me a bit of that show "How It's Made" (but not as dry as the show).  I also really love the the illustrations. In a children's book, so much in conveyed in the pictures that they are, in my opinion, just as important as the text.  These are informative without being so detailed that the kids miss the point.  I truly hope Nicoletta will do many more Allison Investigates books!
