Re: Favorite Books

My toddler likes "Five little monkeys" - but his very favorite book is One Fish, Two Fish, Red Fish, Blue Fish. We read that one twice a day minimum. My 7 year old likes the Magic Treehouse series.

Re: Favorite Books

I've never heard of the magic treehouse series. That must be new? I took a class in children's lit and never heard of it! I'll have to check it out! I loooove Seus...so I agree with your toddler on One Fish Two Fish...hehe...

My little man hasn't shown any signs of favorites yet...but he's only five months old. LOL

Re: Favorite Books

It seems to be pretty popular among the young elementary crowd. I hadn't heard of it either til his first grade teacher introduced us to them, but when I went to the bookstore to buy him some to have at home, there were about a billion in the series (that may be an exaggeration). emoticon

Re: Favorite Books

By the way, what kind of class did you take (or what books were studies)? I'm a lit major; I loooove talking books emoticon
