In honor of Clare’s bookwormy-ness, and to try to preserve some memories in my online baby book, here are some of the books we read over and over and over again (and again and again).
This is a favorite book of mine, and Clare likes it too. She’s started calling it ‘A day.’
Grandma T brought this book on her last visit, in honor of one of Clare’s favorite songs. Clare calls this book “ishy bish” and always says “oh no!” whenever the spider is in peril.
This is a recent favorite that is known as “Zeeb-a book” (Zebra book) It’s a pretty simple, repetitive book and Clare can just about recite it. She also loves to turn each page and say “night night pig” “night night zeeb-a” “night night (hedge) hog” to each of the animals.
I love Eric Carle – and Clare does too. We just got this book and it’s a new favorite. Her favorite part is there is a little squeaker noise maker at the end of the book.
Another Eric Carle! This book has been a favorite for a while. I think that Mom actually hid this book in Hawaii because she was so tired of reading it.
We don’t actually own this book (yet) but it’s Clare favorite book at nannyshare. Adam reports that she requests it every time they sit down to read. I think he’s getting a little tired of it.
Lastly, this is my favorite book. It’s a take-off on the Hush Little Baby nursery rhyme but instead of buying things, Momma shows the baby shooting stars, humming birds, teddy bears and warm blankets. It’s become my favorite lulla-bye to sing before bed.
