The green book is Roald Dahl's Revolting Rhymes. Z is not a fan of dust jackets because they slip while he is reading so he takes them off immediately and we have a huge stack of them on top of the bookcase -- but that's a picture for another day!
Thinking bookish gifts are the best ones,
K and Z
That's a great collection! I love that you read with him and he reads so much. It's great that people give him book, too.
ReplyDeleteHaha, I do the same thing with the dust jackets.
ReplyDeleteWe don't do dust jackets either! I can't bring myself to get rid of them so I have a pile in the basement.
ReplyDeleteAnd yay for Yertle! I loved that book when I was a kid and my son is loving it now! We just read it the other day.
Oooohhh, Z got some great books! Have you read Fantastic Mr. Fox yet?
ReplyDeletePaige - He's a rare kid who likes books more than toys so we don't waste money on something he's not going to play with anyway.
ReplyDeleteClaudia - Funny!
Jenners - I can't get rid of them either. And Yertle was one of the few Dr. Seuss books we didn't have yet so we're excited!
Tif - We haven't but we watched the movie recently which has increased his interest in the book. Hopefully we'll have as much success as we did with The BFG!
I really want to see the movie!! Maybe I will try to get it this weekend for the kids (really, for me too)?!?!
ReplyDeleteTif - I would love to hear what you think when you watch it. I've had it on twice but just can't pay attention! I only see bits and pieces of it.
ReplyDeleteI will definitely keep you posted!! :)
