Some great books




this was a funny book about a family of bunnies who need a nice warm home for the winter.they keep finding funny little ways to get into this old mans house then he nails it shut until he finds he can't get out,but it has a funny ending.We have a bunny and the girls both really naturally loved this book
Caps for sale: a great book! This was the first time that I had read this to the girls and they loved it and we all would shout and stomp our feet saying CAPS! CAPS! CAPS FOR SALE! We had a great time with this book and will be reading Circus Caps for sale next.

A very funny book about some creative farm animals who are tired of eating animal farm food.They decide they want some salsa so they go into the garden and get their ingredients, this book has a rooster who can read and an animal fiesta that gets cancelled....but what do they do instead?



WOW! we loved this book!It was wonderful. A little boy finds a salamander and wants to keep him....but his mommy asks him all these questions on how he will take care of him. So he every answer he gives her his room becomes more and more like a salamander habitat would naturally be.Trees to climb on bugs to eat, rocks to sleep on.....










A cute twist on the regular gingerbread boy!Giddyup giddyup I'm the gingerbread cowboy you cant catch me!!!






A wonderful story about how most people don't like spiders. So this sweet spider is ready to give up on her life,but finally finds someone who doesn't think she is ugly or screams when they look at her. She chooses to live out the rest of her days with her.The woman is getting ready to have a baby but doesn't have a good blanket so Sophie begins her masterpiece......




Very cute story about a little girl named Calpurnia.She has a mess of blocks in her room.Her mom wants her to clean it up.She tells her mom she can't, because what her mom doesn't know is that mess is not just a mess it is a block mess monster! Very cute!




Wonderful story about how wonderful it is to have trees around, to sit under. To gaze at, to have for shelter, to have in our world.
Sorry guys I am trying my best to catch up! I have so many great books to tell you about!

Duck fun


Mama duck and her ducklings. We loved the yellow one best is looked so cute and fuzzy
they found bamboo shoots growing and they stopped to study them

sitting on an old log that fell over under the trees
a mysterious pink intertube floating in the pond. Julia was really interested. She just didn't like that we didn't have her all time favorite answer to the question "Why?"

The trees the girls were sitting under
in deep thought......

daddy duck flying away!

Fun books for May

Very sweet from the same author as the book guess how much I love you. But I personally like this one more.
Julia love love LOVED this book.It is perfect for kids that need to be BUSY! It has flaps to turn, boxes to open,fish,talking cats. It is alot of fun.I read it to her three times last night and she asked to take it to bed.

All about a little girl and the many things she can put in her purse on a long day of errands





About a man who loves rocks all his life,the girls were very interested in all of the different rocks names. Thankfully the book was very informational
with that












Cute book,Julia loves babies,thats why we got this book. And as of today her baby brother is one month old!
This book shows what a baby does as she grows up






We liked this book because it reminded us of Julia and the friendship she has with her special monkey Fumbles. This book is about a child and their very special rabbit.And how they left it at the doctors office. They get really uneasy about being without heir rabbit.but it has a very happy ending!
A very good story with a good meaning about a young panda and a story his grandfather tells him. My girls really liked this book, it made us remember the good times we had with our chinese exchange student last summer. She loved Panda Bears! She called them Pander
this book was very cute and funny about a father and daughter switching roles!
