As the stack of books becomes smaller the closer we are to Christmas and the girls are super excited! Today we had 2 books"Snowie Rolie" by William Joyce and "Lui and the sea moon" by Keith Faulkner. "Snowie Rolie" is based on the kids cartoon " Rolie Polie Olie". In this book the young robot makes a new friend due to an unforeseen circumstance; however once the situation is resolved the new friend becomes endangered. Rolie Polie Olie is determined to rescue his friend and sets off on a mission . "Lui and the sea moon" is about a polar bear that thinks there are 2 moons, the sea moon and the sky moon. The sea moon is actually just the reflection of the moon. These books are both really cute.

Today we had 2 books "Twinkle, Twinkle, Little Star" by Iza Trapani & "Love You Forever" by Robert Munsch. They were both great books however "Love You Forever" had me in tears. Robert Muncsh wrote this book using the song that he had written to both of his stillborn babies, so sad...  Victory loved "Twinkle, Twinkle, Little Star" mostly because she recognized it from the song.

Today's book was "Bur Bur's Boating ABC's" by Joanne Pastel & Kakie Fitzsimmons. It wasn't a kid "favorite" in my house however I personally thing the book is great. It is both educational and multicultural.
