Silly Little Goose!
by Nancy Tafuri – Favorite, my son loves books about geese, no idea why!

A chair for Baby Bear by Kaye Umansky – Favorite, I think my son likes babies and bears – so a baby bear was especially good

The Two Sillies by Mary Ann Hoberman – Almost Favorite, I was very impressed with this story and all the rhymes. It was a little long for my 2 year old, but I think the rhyming and story was silly and fun enough for him to enjoy it.

All by Myself by Ivan Bates – OK Favorite, my son likes elephants but the pictures were kind of boring

Dinosaur Bones by Bob Barner – OK Favorite, my son has some dinosaur books that he loves…but this one had too many facts and not enough roars
