We went to the library today to pick up a few books I had on hold and ended up with two bags full! I just can’t say no to books, especially when they’re free. I usually end up letting Eliana check out as many as we can carry. Any guesses as to what’s in these bags?
Every time we go to the library, Eliana goes straight for the Elephant & Piggie section. If you’re a Mo Willems noob, you should know that these books are quite popular, and you should also go check some out ASAP. Seriously. This is a series that both you and your child will enjoy, even if you have to read it umpteen times.
Anyhow, without further ado, here’s this week’s batch of books, 30% of which Eliana has already read within a couple hours of getting home. (This is why we love our library! Teachers don’t make enough money to keep their kids in books!)
