Llama Llama Misses Mama

Llama Llama Misses Mama by Anna Dewdney

This was a perfect book to read before my son started preschool.  Little Llama is nervous about school and leaving his mama.  But it turns out he really does like school!

Llama Llama Mad at Mama

Llama Llama Mad at Mama

Llama Llama Mad at Mama by Anna Dewdney

This is one of our favorite books in our house... anything in the Llama Llama series!  

Yucky music, great big feet.

Ladies smelling way too sweet.
Look at knees and stand in line.
Llama Llama starts to whine.

Little Llama doesn't like to shop and ends up throwing a tantrum in the store.  Mama Llama calms him down and is able to make shopping fun for her and Little Llama.

Happy Halloween, Stinky Face

Happy Halloween, StinkyFace  by Lisa McCourt

StinkyFace is back with a boatload of questions... What if Mrs. Petry gets so scared by the costumed boy and his friends that she spills the candy? What if a friend's butterfly costume turns her into a real butterfly and she flies up to the sky? As always, Mama lovingly addresses each and every one of her child's concerns.

Snowmen All Year

Snowmen All Year by Caralyn Buehner

An addition to Snowmen at Christmas and Snowmen at Night, the narrator dreams of all the things they'd do with their snowmen if only he could stay throughout the year.  

I Need My Monster

I Need My Monster! by Amanda Noll

Ethan is a little boy who can’t fall asleep without the ragged breathing and claw-scratching of his favorite monster, Gabe. But Gabe has left a note that he’s gone fishing, so Ethan knocks on his floor to summon a series of substitute ghoulies. This book is adorable and takes a spin on those creepy monsters that live under beds...
