Books

One of my new favorite authors is someone I never would have discovered had I not had a child: Sandra Boynton. Her books Barnyard Dance, Pajama Time, and One, Two, Three are all clever, rhythmic, and cute. We've also been reading a fair amount of Oliver Dunrea's work, the board books about goslings Gossie and Gertie et. al.

When the little one is asleep, I try to squeeze in some adult reading. I've got a couple books in progress including Infidel by Ayaan Hersi Ali and Ourselves as Mothers by Sheila Kitzinger.

What are you reading?

one of our favorite kids books is Rooster Can't Cock-a-doodle-doo by
Karen Rostoker-Gruber.

abby also really likes Boom Chicka Rock. as it's about mice, you can guess just how much that thrills me.

I am wading through A Prayer for Owen Meany...don't know if I will make it through.
I live Olivier Dunrea's books, too. There are about 6 or so about those little goslings.
