The Little Bookworm While I don't usually review picture books, I just loved this one. It is a Cajun version of Tom Thumb which is one of the reasons I had to have it for my boy.

This is an adorable folktale about a boy named Little Pierre and his four older brothers. He is of course the youngest and smallest. This is a great folktale about Louisiana. This would be a very appropriate story to read if studying the south or learning about regions of the US.
