Musing Mondays (March 15)

Musing Mondays2Today’s MUSING MONDAYS post is about picture books.

Do you have a favourite picture book, either from your own childhood, or reading to you children?

PLEASE LEAVE A COMMENT with either the link to your own Musing Mondays post, or share your opinion in a comment here (if you don’t have a blog). Thanks.

 

One of the little girls I babysit, my cousins three year old daughter Kaitlyn, is a budding book worm. I walk in the door and she comes toddling out with books under her arms, wanting to be read to.

My #1 favourite picture book is still Maurice Sendak’s Where the Wild Things Are (was very excited to see the movie, and yes I did enjoy it). But it’s not my only favourite. I decided to go cover gathering…
