Children's Books

There are some nursery rhymes that just get caught in your head. Especially the ones that your children love to hear and you read 100 times a day. As of right now my nine month old is obsessed with the Barnyard Dance by Sandra Boynton. I must say that I like it too, but that just might be because her cute little face scrunches up and she huffs and puffs at me as I sing it to her (her version of a giggle).

Then there are the books from when I was little, Little Bunny Foo Foo by Michael Rosen and Arthur Robins. I love singing this to my little monkey. She closes her eyes every time I tap her on the top of her head and smiles as I tell her sternly I am going to turn her into a goon!

The classics, Dr. Seuss. One Fish Two Fish is sadly my least favorite, though I still like it since I love all of the doctors works! I do not remember a lot of this story past the fishes and it is all over the place. I think it will be great when my daughter starts learning to read but there is no personal enjoyment for me to read it to her. I much prefer his other books such as the Cat in the Hat and Green Eggs and Ham.
