Books we read, June 13th
Posted By Barbara On June 13, 2007 @ 10:45 pm In Books, Uncategorized | 1 Comment
- [1] Bear Hugs: Romantically Ridiculous Animal Rhymes by [2] Karma Wilson, a [3] romantic way to start the day, as I said;
- The Great Honey Hunt by [4] Stanley and Janice Berenstain, back when the authors used their full names. The dad is, as is often the case with this series, a buffoon. We might stop reading them. If the mama was protrayed as a foolish but harmless character, I think I would get rid of the book. It’s tough, though, because the overall messages of many of the books are good ones and I hate to think of myself as the book banning type, though of course I am only deciding that they’re not right for our family;
- Smelly Socks by [5] Robert Munsch, a book that makes me think of a song we sang at [6] Kindermusik about sticking your head in a little skunk’s hole, Pee-yew!;
- If You Take a Mouse to School by [7] Laura Numeroff, a book that epitomizes the way life is with a 2 year old (and, I suspect, a kid of any age);
- The Way I Feel by [8] Janan Cain, a book that fits well with conversations that we’ve been having lately, you know the ones that start, “I see that you are very angry…” or sad or frustrated as I try to help Reid pull herself together;
- The Very Bad Bunny by [9] Marilyn Sadler; and
- At My House by Claire Clark and Susan James Frye, that I hear in Shannon’s (our Kindermusik teacher’s) voice no matter whether I am reading it or Ken is.
