Lover's Knot

Today is Book Lover’s Day. It’s a terrific day to curl up with a good book. Every day is a terrific day to curl up with a good book. In honor of the day, here are a baker’s dozen of my favorite children’s picture books:

Brown Bear, Brown Bear What Do You See? - Bill Martin and Eric Carle
Caps for Sale - Esphyr Slobodkina
Goodnight Moon - Margaret Wise Brown
Green Eggs and Ham - Dr. Seuss
Harold and the Purple Crayon - Crockett Johnson
Jumanji - Chris Van Allsburg
No, David! - David Shannon
Peter Rabbit - Beatrix Potter
Strega Nona - Tomie dePaola
Tuesday - David Weisner
The Very Hungry Caterpillar - Eric Carle
We’re Going on a Bear Hunt - Michael and Helen Oxenbury
Where the Wild Things Are - Maurice Sendak

Find a child and read one of these books (or one of your own favorites) together. Who knows? You might help to create another book lover!
