We tried to shrink the pile a bit today by taking back a few items, and I want to share a couple of our favorites.
Amber has been reading The Selection series. They must be good; she reads one in a day.
Berry Big Help is your typical character style DVD - characters with high-pitched voices, big heads, big eyes. After watching it a few times, it needs to go back to the library.
Sesame Street board books are, again a fine library checkout, but not books I'd like to own.
Horses - Trotting! Prancing! Racing! is a sweet book about all the actions horses make. If there's a horse lover or three in your home this is a must read.
Here are the winners!
We're actually a little sad we had to take them back.
Winter Is Coming is a beautifully illustrated book; the perfect pick for November. A young girl enjoys observing and drawing nature from her tree platform. As the days march on, the weather cools, the animals search for food, and her clothing changes from a sweater to hat and mittens. The kids asked for this book over and over which was fine because it was a joy to read.
I'm not as thrilled with Little Burro as I am with Winter is Coming, but Peter loved this book. Little burro follows his band of burros away from his favorite spot - home - to a secret place, which turns out to be a beautiful watering hole. Nice story, Peter's favorite.

Jim Arnosky is a favorite here!
ReplyDeleteMy kids love his All About __(animal)__ series. Perfect for this time of year is All About Turkeys.
DeleteOur library only allows 50 items out at a time. 61!
