Snow White
AuthorJosephine Poole
ISBN0679826564
Text: pretty much the standard story line, a bit on the wordy side.
No idea why the author added the bit about the animals not killing Snow White because she was so pretty. That's right, little girls, being pretty is so important that even wild animals care. No, really, you can pet the bear, honey. You're...

My Naughty Little Sister
AuthorDorothy Edwards
ISBN1405202890
How did I never read this as a child? I'm trying to catch up on classics I someone missed, and this was on the list.

Here Are My Hands
AuthorBill Martin Jr.
ISBN0805011684
I started to use this book for an about me story time, because my other options weren't checked in yet. This book is good for what it is, but there are two pages that gave me pause.

"Here are my ears for washing and drying" but it shows a child with a seashell up to his ear. The next page says, "Here are...
