A favorite

We first found this book at the library, and my three year old son can't get enough of it. I like it because it has nice, intelligent language and a lilting meter that makes it fun to read out loud. He likes it because a little boy sneezes on his aunts. Hilarious stuff to a three year old! Highly recommend.

A Rare Book

This is a rare picture book, funny and intelligent in an old fashioned way. My 8 year old can't get enough of it. the pictures are perfect and the rhymes are, too. It's a great book, especially for kids with a naughty streak. And what kid doesn't have a naughty streak(or at least a naughty urge, like Quentin III)?? I highly recommend it.
