What were some of your favorite picture books as a kid? If you have kids, what are your favorites to read to them?
My Answer: One of my favourites as a child was 'The Little Mouse, the Red Ripe Strawberry and the Big Hungry Bear' by Audrey and Don Wood.
I also loved 'Can't You Sleep Little Bear'. Such sweet books, had the entire series.
There were probably a lot more but htose are the two that stand out in my memory.
Now that I work in the library I get to see so many of the awesome picture books that have been released and there are too many to list that I love, but I will share two of my top picks:
'It's the Bear' by Jez Alborough. - written in rhyme and so cute, a perfect one to read aloud.
'Down by the Cool of the Pool' by Tony Mitton - again it rhymes and it has great actions for kids to join in with.
There's another Jez Alborough bear book that I LOVE: "Where's My Teddy?" Have you come across it? So good!: http://www.amazon.com/Wheres-My-Teddy-Jez-Alborough/dp/1564022803
Here's my FF, if you feel like checkin' it out!: http://thepookapicks.wordpress.com/2013/09/22/feature-follow-friday-9/
the pookapicks - I have seen that one, there are about 3 in the series in total and I love them all. Jez Alborough as an author is one of my top picks full stop. ;D But thanks for sharing .
