Favorite Books from Early Childhood

[canuk-gal]

I'm glad so many of you liked this thread! I have followed along, but didn't have time to reply. Here's my looong reply! You've all given me a lot of inspiration! I appreciate it!


Canuk-Gal - We went through a long period where my daughter wanted to read Alexander and the Terrible Horrible No Good Very Bad Day . . . every single day!!

Okay, I am going to reply more later!!

The illustration in "Alexander" was remarkably well done--we enjoyed it for that aspect alone.

One other great favorite was "Bloody Moments". But this was a book when my son was older (10 or so) although it is humorous, I think younger kids might get a bit queasy about the (medical) subject matter....

Keep on readin'!

cheers--Sharon

I'd suggest that anyone who has a young girl in their life check out http://www.amightygirl.com/. A Mighty Girl has wonderful lists of books, both fiction and non-fiction, about strong, confident girls of all ages. If you "like" A Mighty Girl on facebook, you'll get daily posts about girls and young women who are doing and accomplishing great things. It's so uplifting that it's one of my favorite daily feeds even, though I'm well outside of their target demographic.
