Books that the Kiddo's and you can Enjoy!!
Now my Kiddo's love to curl up at the end of the day & hear a good story. I love that it is the one time that the 3 of them can always sit patiently together waiting to see what adventures are picked for the nights line up! I love to read stories to the Kiddos that have a lesson to tell and that can do it with humor. I love all the giggles and smiles that a book written with wit and excellent illustration draws out of my 3.
Now the classics are always good reads with the Kiddos, but here are some that you may not be as familiar with, so if you re looking for a good family read, try these fantastic stories...and I will warn you that your Kiddos may not be the only ones giggling in the room!
Mo Willems in a Fantastic children's author. My Kiddo's 2 favorite series that he writes are the "Don't let the Pigeon ..." and the "Elephant and Piggie Books". Both series are written with few words but there meaning and emotion is conveyed by the size and font they are writtten in. If you have a new reader in your home the "Elephant and Piggie Books" are fantastic as you can each play a character and enjoy the story together. http://www.mowillems.com/
A book that is as fun to look at as it is to read is Duck! Rabbit! by Amy Krouse Rosenthal. With simple yet amazing illustration this book clearly depicts how 2 people could look at the same object and see 2 completely different images. If you have an early reader this is another book that works great in each taking a character to read. We found ourselves going back just to look through the book to see how amazing it is that 1 picture can be seen as 2 different animals.
Another fantastic adventure to go on at story time is to sail the seven seas... Pirate Girl by Cornelia Funke is a witty story about a little girl named Molly who is captured at seas by a gang of pirates. However the story takes a turn as that all you female pirates out there will love as the pirates who have captured Molly quakes in their boots to discover how Molly knows Barbarous Bertha and her scurvy pirate women crew.
If you are looking for a chapter series that provides entertainment to the reader who has just begun to master the craft of reading then my oldest Kiddo and I would recommend: The Junie B. Jones series by Barbara Park. These books follow the very spunky Junie B. Jones as she starts her adventures in kindergarten she is going to a new school with a new little brother at home and you and your Kiddo's will enjoy all the laughs along the way. Currently there are 25 books in the series. They are a great read aloud book with your Kiddo who is making their way as a new reader.
Keeping with the reader who is beginning chapter books another set of humorous chapter books is by Dan Gutman. He writes the My Weird School Series in which a group of second grade students encounter goofy teachers in their school and the silly antacis that follow. Again this series is a great read aloud with the Kiddo's in your home who are mastering their reading skills! http://www.dangutman.com/
Now most if not all of these books can probably by found at your local libray, http://www.borders.com/online/store/Home or http://www.amazon.com/. So if you are looking for a new book for your Kiddos to enjoy try some of our favorites and let me know what you think. If you have a book that you love plese let me know as I am always looking for new authors, new series and new ways to take my Kiddos into the magical land opened though a good book!
Happy Reading!
