Your Recommendations for Me
Last month I asked on Facebook and Twitter what your favorite board book and picture books were. You all gave me tons of ideas, and Eleanor and I had a blast checking them out from the library.
, but Eleanor wasn't too interested in it, I couldn't get her to read it more than once. It had adorable illustrations though, and I think for the younger-than-2 crowd it could be a hit.
Amanda Junkel recommended Sleepy, Oh So Sleepy
by Denise Fleming. We've read this one about a million times at bedtime now. I'd call it a hit! Such a sweet little story. And perfect for lulling a wiggly kid into a quiet state at bedtime!
Julie Haller recommended Todd Parr. We checked out We Belong Together: A Book About Adoption and Families
. Eleanor immediately made me read it four times in a row, turning back to the beginning as soon as I got to the end. And then all week she kept requesting "that very bright book". A definite winner of a recommendation - and we'll be looking for more Todd Parr books! My Recommendations for You
