One of my weekly outings with Lu has been to our town public library. For several months we were attending baby class, which she loved but has since outgrown. Now we just go and check out 6 or 7 picture books to add some variety to her permanent faves at home. Without fail, each week she gravitates toward just a couple of the books I chose and we read them over and over and over again.
The funny thing is, it is so hit or miss picking books from the shelf, and so often the book I think she'll love most we only read once.
Since it is so difficult to know which books she is going to like, I thought it would be fun to share them so you can have fewer "misses" and more "hits" when you check out your local library or children's bookstore.
This week's favorite: Bee-Bim Bop by Linda Sue Park.
The book is about a mom and girl fixing a Korean dinner. The pictures are vibrant and show a lot of action, something new for Lu to point out each time we read it. The text is like the title sounds- bopping rhyming words. The meal may be Korean, but the basic idea of preparing a meal and then eating as a family is universal. I honestly didn't even mind reading this a dozen times. :)
I hope you enjoy reading this to your munchkin too!
