Book Project

[hiddenmuse]

With my sister giving birth in April (yeah ... in about 2 or so months. I'm feeling ancient here!) I've decided to do what I'm calling a "Book Project". This project involves gathering up favorite books of family members (aunts, uncle, mother) to give to my niece.

I've gotten the following books so far:

"The Poky Little Puppy" - my favorite
"The Monster At The End of the Book" - my brother's favorite
"I Am A Bunny" - Kellie's favorite
"Go, Dogs! Go!" - my sister's favorite

Along with "Pat The Bunny", "Good Night Moon" and "Harry The Dirty Dog" (another one of my favorites).

What I'll be doing is writing a note in the book like, "This was so-and-so's favorite book when they were a kid, and we want to share it with you". I will be doing this when my brother and sister-in-law have their own kids as well. :-)


Anyways ... I'd like to know. What was your favorite book as a kid?

Well, you already mentioned "The Monster At The End of This Book", but I certainly hope it's the GROVER version and not the Elmo one. :)

My others were "Make Way for Ducklings" and "Blueberries for Sal", but they are decidedly New England-themed books, written by New England authors.

Great idea, BTW. Favorite childhood book was what I asked for from all of my baby shower invitees. :)
