The kids in my daycare/preschool LOVED “Are You My Mother” All of them. They’d listen to it over and over.
My favorite was When The Sky Is Like Lace. It should have gotten a Caldecott.

I studied some fictional works for a few years and found the novel "Lolita" by Vladimir Nabokov to be an interesting read..one I truly enjoyed! Of the books I recall from childhood I must say that any of Dr. Suess' books would be my favorites!

I give "Oh the Places You'll Go" when I am a guest at a baby shower. My 21 year old saw the book in my gift bag the other day. "Really good book, Mom." Kinda sealed the deal that it is a good choice. My friend read it every year to her son on New Year's Eve.

commented 12 years ago

Yes! That would be wonderful! I will read you DR Seuss! and of course anything you would like to hear as related to Doolittles over time.

I KNOW THIS MUCH IS TRUE by Wally Lamb. I've read it three going on four times. If you wait a few years between reading, you can do this. It's a great story. I also like THE GODFATHER and THE THORNBIRDS. Great long reads........

Suess always reminds me of my dad who would do different voices for the characters..what a hoot! He made being a kid fun! ;)

commented 12 years ago

He was a road musician so we saw little of him..but when he was around he was entertaining and a real sweet dude..dad!

commented 12 years ago

He advised me against it...said it was lonely and long hours on the road and to be a trucker instead!!! But nooooo... ;D

Not because it's so well written nor a great piece, but because it is a fictional piece written about our local area of the Finger Lakes. An interesting mystery story.

I really hated that when I was little- perhaps a re-read as an adult is due.

I have ALL of Desperate Housewives on my laptop. (Wonderful Netflix) It’s like a book but it speaks and moves and plays music. I’m afraid I’m spoiled and this may happen to a generation. In the past I read a lot of books. I also listened to about one hundred books on tape while I painted.

When I was working assembly I would listen to audio books I got from the library, saved me from dying from boredom. I listen to my collection at home, too....
