I have to admit I never got into picture books that much with Tesfa. I could do the nonsense Dr Seuss again and again (I am very good at reading Fox in Socks super quickly and there was a point where I had all of One Fish, Two Fish, Red Fish, Blue Fish memorized) and a few one off books (I really liked Doggie in the Window by Elaine Arsenault, even though it is really sappy at the end). The same Robert Munsch I read when I was a kid (not so much the newer ones). And my favourite book that no one else ever seems to know Sometimes I like to curl up in a ball.
But I was ecstatic about two years ago when we made the jump to me reading chapter books to Tesfa. There are so many chapter books and I love chapter books.
But every now and then, I read posts like Pickle Me This’s and I think that maybe I should have spent more time on picture books with Tesfa and found some great ones. I guess it’s one of those things I’ll put in my time machine list, to go back and look harder in the picture book section of the library. Among other things I’m going to do with my time machine that is.
