So Much Fun, It' Scarry!

I love reading! When Grandad and Boppy were here last week, I asked them to read to me constanty! Boppy made a photo book for me of my trips to Italy and Alisal, and they are some of my favorites. I love looking at the pictures of me and Harper and mommy and daddy. I kept bringing the book to any adult and saying, "book, book, please". I love it!

Here's me and dad and dad-dad (Grandad) reading my Knuffle bunny book. I love this book so much that I can now read the part of Trixie (that's the baby in the book). When she babbles, I babble. When she cries, I cry. And we she finds her bunny, I shout, "BUNNY!" What a great book.

Gran arrived over the weekend with Ada and brought two books from Richard Scarry. What Do People Do All Day was one of daddy's favorites when he was growing up, so Gran added Cars and Trucks and Things that Go to our library. Daddy also loved that book when he was little. The second book, Busytown, is a weak remake of What Do People Do All Day and I haven't really gotten into that one yet. We are looking for Scarry's Busy Busy World, but it is apparently out of print.

On Monday night, daddy and I sat down for bedtime reading with Cars and Trucks and Things that Go. I didn't know what to expect and neither did daddy, but I pretty interested after the first few pages.

Then we found Goldbug.

On every page of this book, Scarry fits in a little yellow beetle. Sometimes hiding in the back of car, sometimes hanging out on the side of the road, sometimes in his own little car. Hunting for the little Goldbug became my obsession. I loved it. With each turn of the page, I would shrug my shoulders, ask, "where?", and we would look and look . . . Then, when we found him, I would giggle and eagerly turn the page to start again. I did this over and over again, never losing interest. Before we knew it, we had finished the whole book. ALL 66 PAGES! Wow.

I love this reading thing . . .
