The girls love nothing more than a trip to the library. There's something magical about all of the possibilities there. They can spend hours making their selections, while I endure several heart-attacks racing around trying to find Noni behind the shelves. Then, after I pay off our bazillion dollars in late fees, they come home with their arms full of new books and disappear into their room with their new loot.
Since by now I know every single word of Where The Wild Things Are and Moo Baa La La La by heart, I always enjoy reading Lucy and Noni something new. My favorite books seem to be the ones that make me either laugh out loud or cry. We just got some good ones at the library this week so I thought I'd share some of my favorite kid books below. What are yours?

Skippy Jon Jones by Judy Schachner
Any of the Frog and Toad books by Arnold Lobel
