Last week we picked out a new Halloween book at the book fair. And it such a cute book. I love it. It's called
Ghosts in the House! by Kazuno Kahara. The whole book is illustrated in only black, orange, and white. The story is cute and the book could easily double as a Halloween decoration because of the color palate.
It looks like the author has a new book coming out at the end of October called
I'm Jack Frost I'm really excited. I think I'm eventually going to get it for the girls. Jack Frost comes to our house on New Year's Eve to refill our Christmas stockings with goodies for the New Year. I hope that a similar style of illustration is used through out this new book.
I love well done children's books. There are so many good ones out there. Ruby likes
the elephant and piggie books (especially
I am Invited to a Party!) I also really like
Sandra Boynton's Books. When the girls were babies I read them
The Going to Bed Book every night. So many of my board books are hashed. They've been carted around, chewed on and colored in. But I like my books to be scruffy, it makes me feel like they've been loved.
