Llama, Llama Red Pajama (Llama Llama)
Viking Juvenile, 2005
A sweet bedtime story!!!
What a wonderful story! My daughter is 3 1/2 and after one reading this quickly became her favorite book. It is so much fun to read and she enjoys it. It is great at teaching kids about being patient and waiting for a parent when they call them from their room. ...

Knuffle Bunny: A Cautionary Tale (Bccb Blue Ribbon Picture Book Awards (Awards))
Hyperion Book CH, 2004
This book has been loved to pieces by my three daughters.
There is more tape than paper holding this book together now because my three girls have read it hundreds of times. They all giggle uncontrollably at the part where Trixie goes boneless. The expression on the dad's face when the mom asks the seemingly obvious question ...

Maurice Sendak
Harper Collins, 1988
Let The Wild Rumpus Start!
Among the hundreds of books my husband and I have purchased for our seven-year old daughter over the course of her young life, "Where the Wild Things Are" is one of the absolute best. She loves the freeing world that Max enjoys and its ever-so-slightly dangerous vibe. ...

Not only is the book good, but the cover and the pictures are so beautifully colored that my granddaughter loves to just look at the cover and feel it. That's half the battle to getting them to read.

Fancy Nancy
Jane O'connor
HarperCollins, 2005
An Excellent Start to the Series
I think what makes us love Fancy Nancy, is not her fanciness (although to my daughter that's definitely a plus), it's how much she loves and cares about her family and those around her. This book illustrates how much the family loves Nancy back and it's really ...

Brava, Strega Nona!: A Heartwarming Pop-Up Book
Putnam Juvenile, 2008
Goosebumps!
When I opened the first page in the bookstore, I gasped out loud and immediately got goosebumps. I could not fathom how a simple book could look and act so magical (AND cost less than $20)! I bought it for my 3-year-old niece but couldn't wait to show it to my adult ...

Fancy Nancy and the Posh Puppy
Jane O'connor
HarperCollins, 2007
Good lesson on pet care and family
This was the perfect book to show our daughter why the cutest, fuzziest animal wasn't neccessarily the best match for our family and lifestyle. Funny scenes and storyline, Fancy Nancy learns it best to adopt a dog that fits with her family, not her ideal Fancy world.
