MILK + BOOKIES

September 19, 2011


i'm thrilled to participate in milk + bookies day this year!

milk + bookies is a nonprofit organization providing books to underprivileged children. to celebrate milk + bookies day and to get the word out about the cause (you can click HERE to donate + HERE to find out how to throw your own milk + bookies party), i was asked to share our very favorite book.

huck loves where the wild things are, and goodnight moon, and huck runs amuck (and my favorite growing up was the amelia bedelia stories), but right now, we're really enjoying no, david! by david shannon, because it's short and sweet, and i get to use all my real awful mom voices for it. (we rush through it because huck's attention span is still sort of hit and miss.)

  1. No David sounds like a book I would have the tolerance to read one time and one time only.

  2. Oh my gosh I loved amelia bedelia- my fav was when she made sponge cake from an actual sponge.

  3. David's teeth are scary. Perhaps his mom is afraid he'll gnaw on something so she HAS to tell him "no."

  10. Think I must be a really sleep-deprived Mummy, because for about 1/4 of that post, I kept on reading milk and boobies.... and I was thinking what the? lol. My little girls favourite books are Spot books, don't know if you have them in the US? But they are lift the flap ones and she loves being involved! Off to go put my silly self to bed now!
