We were in the middle of Story Time when the mail came and three new kid's books arrived that I've been waiting for! Yes! By my favorite kid's author too! Well, maybe it's a tie between her and Dr. Seuss. Their styles are totally different so that's good! The kids were almost as excited as me! I guess I've mentioned her name a lot because Hudson totally said her name perfectly - or at least he pronounced it like I do! Haha! He said, "Iza Trapani wrote that book!" Wow! That shocked me! (I know I shouldn't be shocked by anything he says, but I still am!) I now have 13 of her books. (And she's an amazing illustrator as well.) She basically takes the old Nursery Rhymes and expands on them - a lot!
In this first picture Hudson said, "She's getting out a drum." Linnea had pulled it off the shelf. He loves laying beside Linnea to be close to her. And in the 2nd picture Hudson was playing on the couch and said, "Look Gary! I'm standing on my head!" Which he sees Riley and Kenzie doing all the time!!
Hudson is reading one of his favorites to Atley and Nora. It's an "I Spy" book and it has an object on one page and you have to find the same object on the opposite page - which is much more full of many other objects. In the last picture Hudson was taking Atley's hand and showing her where the object is at. So cute. They really do learn a lot from each other. (Although not usually quite this direct!) You're a good teacher Hudson!
