Reid didn’t sleep well Saturday night and so was particularly ready for listening to books on Sunday. Unfortunately, I was too tired to take note of reactions. We read:
- Soft Shapes: Seasons by AnnMarie McLaughlin, a book that I think Ken will be glad to see fall from favour. Reid likes to take out the shape from each of the season pages and doesn’t mind the paucity of words;
- Count! by Denise Fleming;
- Opposites: A teaching train book (no author);
- Hushabye Lily by Claire Freedman;
- What a Scare, Jesse Bear by Nancy White Carlstrom, nice enough but not as good as Jesse Bear, What Will You Wear?
- Emily’s Balloon by Komako Sakai;
- Maisy at the Fair by Lucy Cousins;
- Jesse Bear, What Will You Wear? by Nancy White Carlstrom;
- Pocoyo and Friends: A first book of friendship (no author);
- Wheelies Trusty Tractor, illustrated by Julia Oliver;
- Baby-O by Nancy White Carlstrom, which is set in the West Indies and didn’t seem to really engage Ken and Reid; and
- One Day, Daddy by Frances Thomas.
And at bedtime:
- Going on a Field Trip, a Read and Roll book;
- A Tune-Up for Toby, a Read and Roll book; and
- Curious Kitties, A Colors Book by Sam McKendry.
