Happy Reading!

I always like "The Stinky Cheese Man" when I was growing up. It was funny and had great artwork.

Good choice. I was a big fan of "Alexander and the Terrible, Horrible, No Good, Very Bad Day".

Funny Miss Twiggley by Dorothea Warren Fox is my absolute, all-time favorite children's book. As a girl, I asked my Aunt to read it to me EVERY night. The book is about courage and overcoming fears and shyness. Until recently, it has been of print for several years.

Funny Miss Twiggley
Lived in a tree
With a dog named Puss
And a color TV
She did what she liked
And liked what she did

But when company came...

Miss Twiggley hid

It's not that I don't like people said she
But one get's a little shy
When one lives in a tree

These are excellent titles and thanks for sharing. I have had the pleasure of reading both Stinky and VBD during storytime, but Doris...how did I miss your title? It is very lyrical. ;) I'll need to look that one up on alibris.com!

I still laugh every time I think of reading The Cut-Ups by James Marshall or Sheep in a Jeep by Nancy Shaw.

Rick, Beep Beep! I love Sheep in a Jeep!

Teacher, I hate to admit this, but I've never read Pinnochio! What kind of Librarian am I?
