Today I'm participating in "Feed Me Books Friday". This is where we share our favorite childrens' books and why.
We had never borrowed a "picture book" from the library. Therefore, we had no idea how much fun telling our own story could be until we got this book in the mail, Welcome To The Zoo
What a great picture book!
I love this book because:
Another classic, I'd never read before receiving by mail is Good Night, Gorilla.
What a cute book!
This is why we love this book:
Be sure to visit The Adventures in Motherhood for more favorite books!
Enjoy!
What a great picture book!
I love this book because:
- it's very colorful - which I think is very important to keep the interest of small children
- there are so many story lines going on throughout the book, you can "reread" it 100 times and share a different story each time
- you can follow the "visitors" throughout the book, from the time they enter the zoo until they leave at the end of the day (I especially love how the illustrator used the shadows from the sun to illustrate the time of day...)
- there is a review on the back flap to see what you and your child saw while "walking" through the zoo
- my daughter can "read" it to her little brother, which totally warms my heart
Another classic, I'd never read before receiving by mail is Good Night, Gorilla.
What a cute book!
This is why we love this book:
- the gorilla is hilarious! You actually start to "feel" how he "feels", sneaking through the zoo following the zookeeper. The first time I read the book, I ended up whispering it...so funny.
- it teaches your child color matching, using the keys to match to the cage.
- I love to follow the mouse through the book.
- it's a great story to read just before bed, keeping your child in a sleepy mood

Enjoy!

Looks like some good books! Glad I stopped by! I'm giving away the book I featured in my FEED ME BOOKS FRIDAY post, so be sure to stop by to enter the drawing!
Cool! Books in the mail! I remember my mom joined a book club for a yr or 2 and i loved getting new books.
My heart would warm to see my kids sharing a book too. Love that!
