Goodnight Moon We're Going on a Bear Hunt First Words Mr. Brown Can Moo! Can You? Big Red Barn The Pigeon Loves Things That Go! Everywhere a Moo, Moo |
First Words didn't seem as interesting as Farm did last week, even though it's a very similar book.
Goodnight Moon is such a classic, I feel like I don't need to describe it. I really liked Big Red Barn, also by Margaret Wise Brown.
Jen loves Dr. Seuss, so Mr. Brown Can Moo! Can You? is one that she read The Bean a couple of times during the week.
Going on Bear Hunt is the song illustrated. It's okay, but not a favourite at this point. Jen thought it was too long.
Again, Everywhere a Moo, Moo is just the song Old MacDonald. I like that it uses actual photos of animals in it. I'm finding that's something I'm quite partial to... not so much in stories, but in the touch and feel style books and ones about everyday objects and whatnot.
The Pigeon Loves Things That Go! was short and funny. Nothing spectacular, but something to get a little chuckle out of.

I've decided that rather than make this a weekly feature, I'm going to post monthly and only include books that we really liked or that are particularly fitting for the season. Please continue to share your children's favourite books. I love getting suggestions! (One of the parents of a student I taught last year just gave us a baby gift of a bookstore gift certificate that is burning a hole in my pocket!)
Hello! I am a new follower - found you through Circle of Moms. :)
ReplyDeleteI love all of those books. I'm a primary school teacher with 3 kids under age 4 of my own.
I just added you to my favorite reads list and I look forward to reading more from you! I hope you'll take a sec and come follow me too. Thanks!
