Favorite Picture Books for March

Sean-Paul's favorites this month have been wide and varied and full of some favorites old and new! Here is a short list of his repeated requests ~

 
:: Adventure on Klickitat Island by Barbara Upton

    A great adventure on a stormy night with a favorite teddy bear. Be sure to read this one with a nice big blankie in tow!

 
:: A Birthday for Frances by Russell Hoban

    Classic Frances and perfect for pre and post birthday party days.

:: Where the Wild Things Are by Maurice Sendak

    Not only is this one asked for regularly, but just looking at Sendak's illustrations in this book are to the reader's delight. We also have a Scholastic Storybook DVD version that includes this and some other favorite books, fun for the wild rumpus part!

:: Midnight Teddies by Diana Kubick

    Best when read with a favorite Teddy bear or two.

:: Snuggle Piggy and the Magic Blanket by Michele Stepto

    Another good one to read with a special blanket at hand :)

 
:: The Story About Ping by Marjorie Flack

    Always love to read this one.

We're also just starting The Bobbsey Twins as he loves to have a chapter book going now as well :) He also carries around a Paddington that he is "reading" to himself! Hope you're getting in some good reading and snuggle time with your sweeties!

The Bobbsey Twins were a favorite of mine when I was a child. I love that they are still around!

Blessings to you and yours!

My grandfather would read me The Story About Ping every time I visited him. When he moved to a retirement home he gave me his copy. He had purchased it when he was a young father of two (he and my grandmother eventually had five children). My grandfather passed away when I was pregnant with my second. It broke my heart but I feel like my children get a little bit of that family connection every time I read that book to them.
