Hooray! It's True! Celebrate You! by Sherri Duskey Rinker

ON THIS SPECIAL OCCASION,
WE'RE JUST FILLED WITH PRIDE.
AND WE'RE THRILLED AND GRATEFUL
TO BE ON YOUR SIDE!

Bring out the balloons, the confetti, the gifts, and perhaps the cake. It's your day to celebrate!

You'll pardon us if we take a moment to remember how far you've come, the challenges you have overcome, just how much you've done, and the great things that lie ahead!

In noted picture book author Sherri Duskey Rinker's latest, Celebrate You! (Balzer and Bray, 2019) her better-than-a-greeting-card salute to celebrating accomplishments is just the thing for graduations, scholastic and otherwise. With her perky little penguin standing in for honored guest, friends and family appear to share in the festivities.

And that's not all! There are plenty of awesome adventures and august events ahead, as hinted in Rinker's jolly send-off, created with lighthearted illustrations featuring a pizzazz-y penguin celebrant and a menagerie of well-wishers by A. N. King. 

THIS IS JUST THE BEGINNING,
NOW GO MAKE YOUR WAY.
GO SHINE IN THE WORLD,
MAKE THE MOST OF YOUR DAY.
