Children’s Books

Earlier this week I spent time with Ezekiel. We went to Barnes & Noble. I love that my kids and I share in a love of writing and in books. Books that you hold in your hands and can smell the pages. 

I decided to visit the children’s section where I hope to one day have my own authored books sitting on the shelves. I thumbed through several books and three caught my eye. So much so, that I had to purchase them to read to my grandkids. 

The first one that I couldn’t put down was called “Together, A Tale of Friendship” by Daphne Deckers. The book cover grabbed my attention with the gorgeous colors. It is a delightful story about discovering what/ who a friend really is. The illustrations were wonderful. This book was my favorite of the day. 

The second book was “Mother Bruce”, by Ryan T. Higgins. What a fun book about a grumpy bear who accidentally becomes a mother to baby geese. I love the illustrations that captured the emotions of the animals. Very well done in my opinion. 

The third book was “The Day the Crayons Quit” by Drew Daywalt. Such an imaginative story where crayons had much to say about how they are used, or not used. Each color writes a letter to the owner of the crayons, a little boy named Duncan. Again, the illustrations are wonderful. 

If you are looking for last-minute gift for your Littles, these are my recommendations.

I hope you are having a wonderful holiday season! ♥️
