Ready to Walk (My First Milestones), by Lee Wildish, (Oct. 2025, Workman Kids), $8.99, ISBN: 9871523529063
Ages Birth-2
This book made me squeal! An adorable toddler is ready to take her first steps, and lets readers share the excitement with her. With rhyming text and counting to three – and a little help from Daddy and her dog – the little girl stands up and takes her steps: 1, 2, 3! Walking is new, so she has a little bit of a fall, but that’s okay; she’s ready to get up and go again, and when she masters that… it’s time to run! The first in a new series from Workman Kids, Ready to Walk has simple, brief sentences and bright, colorful illustration. The girl and her father are brown-skinned. Perfect for lapsits or cuddle time, these are great for library collections and home collections.
