When I was pregnant someone told me that I wouldn't have time to read anymore. Luckily, they were wrong. I still get to read, just not as long as I like and I read A LOT of children's literature.
My kids love books which makes me very happy (even when I have read the same one over and over and over again).
Some of my favorites include:
- We're Going On A Bear Hunt by Helen Oxenbury
- Bear Snores On by Karma Wilson (Author), Jane Chapman (Illustrator)
- Brown Bear Brown Bear What Do You See by Bill Martin Jr. (Author), Eric Carle (Illustrator)
- The whole How Do Dinosaurs... series by Jane Yolen
- The whole Dr. Seuss collection
- and Max's personal favorite - Truckery Rhymes by Jon Scieszka
- Alice in Wonderland by Lewis Carroll
- The complete Wizard of Oz series by L. Frank Baum
- The complete Ramona series by Beverly Cleary (I really really want the original covers!)
- Wind in the Willows by Kenneth Grahame
- Hollow Tree in the Deep Woods by Albert Bigelow Paine (which my dad used to read to us)
- The Indian in the Cupboard Trilogy by Lynne Reid Banks
- Little House books by Laura Ingalls Wilder
- Charlotte's Web by E. B. White
- Where the Red Fern Grows by Wilson Rawls

I have purposefully not read any of the Harry Potter books so that I can enjoy reading them for the first time together with the boys. I've avoided watching the movies on TV as well. It's going to be a while though!
That is a great idea! I loved the series.
