Water for Elephants: A Novel
Sara Gruen
Algonquin Books, 2007
Hard to get into, but totally worth it!
I bought this book ages ago, always with the intention of reading it. (I must admit, I'm not a huge circus lover so wasn't sure what I'd think, but after reading other reviews I thought I'd give it a try.) For me, the book was hard to get into and I picked it up and ...

There Is a Bird On Your Head! (Elephant and Piggie)
Hyperion, 2007
Another great one from Mo
I really love Mo. He's awesome and has a way of connecting with both of my boys (ages 4 & 6), me, and the grandparents. The illustrations are great. It's perfect for my 4 year old. I would prefer more challenging reading for my 6 year old, but he loves it.
Enjoy!
