She's also really into Should I Share My Ice Cream? and The Pigeon Finds a Hot Dog by Mo Willems right now. Her very favorite, though, is a children's bird watching paperback that she sleeps with and takes everywhere with her!</p> <p>B: The Little Blue Truck all day every day. He's also into a series of books featuring machines and construction trucks that DH had when he was a kid. They're pretty outdated because they're from the 80s, but they are his absolute favorites. He also has gotten into Dr. Suess recently and asks for several of those each night before bed. </p> <p>They are both 2. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-are-are-your-los-favorite-books-right-now#post-2584305 Mon, 11 Jul 2016 15:25:22 +0000 LBee 2584305@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@youboots: Ha!

We started with talking before hand about how many pages he wanted to read (he had the option of 1 to 10 since he can count that high, he usually picked 2 for some reason) and now we read the whole thing for bedtime. He knows his options at bedtime are to read the "big book" in full or to read 4 or 5 other books. He always selects the "big book." I would start introducing a few pages and see how she does! We also used to just open the book to random pages and ask him to start telling us what he knew - i.e. he would point to a cow and say, "cow says moo!"</p> <p>ETA: Sorry for the novel. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-are-are-your-los-favorite-books-right-now#post-2584295 Mon, 11 Jul 2016 15:14:37 +0000 fancyfunction 2584295@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>The Runaway Tortilla (same story as gingerbread man), she's 3. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-are-are-your-los-favorite-books-right-now#post-2584292 Mon, 11 Jul 2016 15:12:10 +0000 youboots 2584292@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@LBee: I got this for T!

He calls it his "big book" and we've read it every night for the past month.
