We have what I would consider a fairly extensive children's library. I have always loved reading, and can barely give up a book I've read. I have favorites from my childhood, Laura
Ingalls Wilder, Beverly
Cleary and Beatrix Potter. I like to purchase books for my children. They get them in every Easter basket and at every Christmas. But, as I've mentioned it before. I HATE listening to kids learning how to read. Elle reads to herself now, but Will, I still have to listen to him, help him sound out words. Usually, He reads, then I read to him. Over the years, we've collected lots of different authors, and when I find one I really like, I tend to purchase all of their works. This is what Will has been reading this week, they are truly engaging!
You can check out the authors web page at: Jane Yolen It is a fun site. She has oodles of other children's selections... Some titles I would like to see: "How Do Dinosaurs talk to their Parents?" and "How Do Dinosaurs Argue with their Siblings?" and "How Do Dinosaurs Do their Homework?"

I have a friend with twin girls who are absolutely OBSESSED with dinosaurs! They would love these books!
I was always a Nancy Drew kind of girl.
My Tater LOVES these books...not a day goes by that we don't read at least 3 of them!
