We have........
Sweet books.
Funny books.
Pop-up books.
Boy books.
Stupid {as in, why was this ever published} books.
And awesome books!
We try to read a lot! Not only to help WJ's English get better, but for overall learning, development, & cuddle time.
My son's favorite book is his pop-up book from Mrs. Tammy of Dr. Seuss' Oh, the Places You'll Go. He is beginning to memorize it & quotes it while walking around the house. It's really cute! His favorite 2 words in the whole book are "boom bands." He makes it into a song, "Boom bands, boom bands!" He's such a muscial little guy!
I have two current favorite books.
One is Because You Are My Baby by S. North. It's a Mommy telling her baby that whether she is a sailor, a rock star, a geologist, or a mountaineer she'll do anything for him. It's so sweet & imaginative! I love it!
God Found Us You by Bergren & Bryant is a book about the journey of an adoptive momma fox to her little baby. For adoptive first-time Mommas whose journeys were filled with prayer & hope & waiting, this is the perfect book. It so beautifully conveys our journey to WJ. I love reading it to him!
So, what are your favorite children's books?
I'd love to hear!
We love discovering new books!
Have a great weekend!

ReplyDeleteWe love the Jesus Storybook Bible here too! Great theology! I don't think we own any of the others you mentioned although I have heard of them. Thank you very much for the suggestions!
