Books we LOVE right now.

March 12, 2014 | Uncategorized

With it being Spring Break around here for the next two weeks, our family hit up our local library last week to stock up on good reading material.  I still make  like my kids to read for at least 20 minutes over the holidays to make sure they’re keeping their brain chugging.
{Because with all of the slushies and donuts they’ve been consuming as of late, they need SOMETHING good goin on up there! Chuckle.}

I LOVE getting books from the library.
It means we can PREVIEW things before actually spending money on them.
And as you know… Some books are a HIT.  And others are a BIG miss.

Today I’m sharing with you a few of our VERY FAVORITE HITS
that we’ve just recently discovered.

Ella Kazoo Will Not Brush Her Hair
by Lee Fox

If you have a daughter like me, who is a teeny tiny bit of a HOT MESS when it comes time for me to brush her hair in the morning {and by HOT MESS, I mean, weeping, wailing and gnashing of teeth!} then this book is for
YOU and YOUR DAUGHTER!!!

My daughter LOVED reading this book over and over again and again with me.
Now, when we brush her hair and she starts to throw a fit, I always say
‘Don’t act like Ella Kazoo, London!’ and she stops immediately.
She doesn’t want to be THAT girl.
{Lol.  It really is a good eye opener for little kids 
and OH SO FUNNY!}

Ponyella
by Laura Numeroff and Nate Evans

This right here is your modern day Cinderella story. 
 And if you have a little one who LOVE horses and princesses…they will LOVE reading this book.  It’s got a sweet story to it, too

Dog Breath
by Dav Pilkey
This book is totally HYSTERICAL!
{My boys have informed me that the author of this book is ALSO the same author who writes the Big Nate series..which they ADORE.}


This book is about a little dog named ‘Hally Tosis’ {that within itself is FUNNY!} and it’s owners doen’t know QUITE what to do with her stinky stinky breath!


This one was a hit with my sons AND daughter!



And last but not least…another cute little girly book….



Birdie’s Big-Girl Shoes 
by Sue Jean Rim
I have a little 5 year old fashionista on my hands and 
this book was like striking GOLD with her.
It’s all about fancy womens shoes….but on a little girl.
Too. Stinkin. Cute.
I’ve heard there’s a whole series of this little Birdie girl and I CAN’T wait to check those out next.

What books are YOUR KIDS FAVORITE’S???

    We like the Llama Lllama series books and Oliver still likes Sandra Boynton books because they're pretty silly. We also like Chica Chica Boom Boom and Chicky Chicky Chook Chook.
