And it is so dang cute when she says, “Pouh, Pouh” every time she sees the book! That and “Chicken Bedtime is Really Early” are staples at our house.

Favorite book when he was little was I’ll Love You Forever.  Other top readers included: Cloudy with a Chance of Meatballs, Guess How Much I Love You, Alexander & The Very Bad, Horrible Day, The Monster at the End of This Book (LUV!!) (Sesame Street), Pat the Bunny,  Go Dog Go & The Sneetches and Other Stories (Dr. Suess) *my favorite*, Stellaluna, The Kissing Hand, Olivia, all of the If You Give a Mouse books, Madeline, The Stinky Cheese Man (luv!!), Polar Express, Curious George.

For adoption stories: Jamie Lee Curtis books including Tell Me About the Night I Was Born, Over the Moon, Adoption is For Always.

Take Care! Paula
