Show & Tell: Good books for kids
/This new book Duck! Rabbit!
by Chronicle Books has my kids cracking up and begging for another reading. Maybe it's because I'm a stellar storyteller, or maybe it's because Amy Krouse Rosenthal, who wrote two of our favorites (Little Pea
and Little Hoot
) has done it again with her great sense of humor. The classic optical illusion (drawn by Tom Lichtenheld), and banter between the two "characters" in the story is classic and my kids loved it. But we'll leave the answer up to you--is it a duck or is it a rabbit?
You can get a sneak peek for yourself here:
The other new books that have been making the rounds at our kitchen table are these amazing Rosie Flo coloring books. I honestly don't know who has more fun with these, the girls or me. The outfits and illustrations in this book are amazing, and children (or their parents) only need to add the missing "body parts" and color the clothing and accessories. There are three versions of this book...
and the Animals Coloring Book
Here are a few peeks into the original, and one that Emma worked on today:
And I'm excited that Chronicle Books has given me one copy of the original Rosie Flo coloring book, and one copy of Duck!Rabbit! to give away...two winners!! You know the drill, leave a comment. I'll announce two random winners Monday afternoon.
Happy weekend, friends!!
