Book Worm

For the first 11 months, Ledger never sat still long enough to let me read to him.

Then suddenly, this week, he's been obsessed with his books.
He carries them all around the the house.
And about every 15 min we take a "reading break."
It makes me, an Elementary Education major very happy :) 

Even Dad gets in on the action.

We've been reading a lot of The Very Hungry Caterpillar, he loves the holes in the book. 
One of my all time favorites.



What's your favorite children's book?

P.S. Check out this great cause here. 
Primary Children's Medical Center holds a special place 
in our hearts.

    My son is 11 months old too (he'll be 1 next week! Yikes.) and has always loved books. He's been known to pull all of his books out of his toy basket and if a toy is on the ground, it's because it was in the way of a book.

    He loves his books. I never thought at this age he would be this into them, but he's right up there with your son! Must be this age or something... I don't know. Either way it's REALLY FLIPPIN CUTE!

    My all time favorite cook is Love You Forever by Robert Munsch. That book never gets old. In fact, looking at the book now its looking pretty hammered and its probably time to purchase a new copy :)There have been times in my kids lives where it has been a daily read. Love it! I think it means as much to me as it does to them!

    I'm a pretty big fan of the old school Cat in the Hat myself. Some other good ones are Lady and the Tramp. I like the classics!

    Anything by Sandra Boynton is good! She is one of my faves! I also love "Just go to bed" by Mercer Mayer and "Brown Bear Brown Bear" One of Hudsons favorite was "The Barnyard Dance" by Sandra Boynton. I read it so much I still have it memorized! I have lots of faves though, we read lots at our house!

    Beep Beep, Choo Choo, Bird Fly High, and Silly Suzy Goose by Petr Horácek (We love him!)

    Sorry for the list. We love books... and I have very young readers. It's hard to pick a favorite, so those are a few of ours. As a former teacher, I have a slight addiction for buying children's books. :- )

    LOVE the very hungry caterpillar. We nicknamed my boy that becuase he was always hungry, still is, but he's a bit big for the name now. I was sad when he out grew all his caterpillar clothes and when daddy said it was time to send his toy one to another child to love on. But we still have the GIANT (and I mean bigger than the child himself is) board book style copy we found at DI not long ago. It's beat up, but both my kiddos love it.
    The other favorite in our house, is Chicka Chicka Boom Boom and there's a great one called 10 little dinosaurs (it has google eyes)

Hi, we're the Sullengers! Life turned upside down for us in 2010 when we lost our daughter in an accidental drowning. Since then, we've documented our highs (life with all five of our kids) and our lows (struggles with grief) but amongst everthing we've experienced, we know as long as we hold on to one another we can get through anything that comes our way.
