Cool! We've really liked your suggestions for "Zin, Zin, Zin a Violin" and "A Dark Dark Tale". And we're going to pick up "Goodnight, Goodnight Construction Site" for DS1.5 for Christmas. Despite the fact that we are swimming in books, I always look forward to a new one!
Oh, I'm so glad the list has been helpful! I am a self-avowed children's literature addict, so I'm always delighted to find like-minded parents.
ITA your disconnect with other parents. We get some strange looks from other parents when we bring a grocery shopping cart to the library to pick up dozens of new books every week. My thinking is: why not? My son gets so excited to read new books and seems to treasure each one. Books are such a wonderful portal to other places, people, cultures, ideas...
I see I'm due for an update on this thread!
