I love Frances. I love when kids come to my house and clamor for more Frances books. I love still having a few in reserve. I love reading them to people. I love reading them to myself. I am barmy for Frances.
But this Frances book has the best line in maybe the whole series, and one I quote on approximately...

The kitten who wanted to be a beggar
15 November 2013
I found this to be rather amusing because of the occupations that were open up to the four kittens. One of them was a ship's cat (or a sailor), one was a farm cat (or a farmer), and one of them was an alley cat (or a beggar). Actually, the first...

This is the same format as the other flower fairy book I have read. Each page is a different poem about a different flower. The drawings are fantastic, so lovely and colorful.

I loved some of Richard Scarry's books but not all of them. I found that a lot of his books aimed at the higher aged kids and the more advanced readers. This alphabet book is a cute idea with the two main critters going on an adventure to find all the missing letters of the alphabet. They find them at the beginning,...

Hilarious! Some of my favorite poems are in here! The only thing that would make it better would be if Shel Silverstein's poems were in here. Other than that, it's perfect. :) (In the case you haven't guessed, Shel Silverstein is my favorite poet. "If you're a bird/be an early bird,/and catch the worm for...

I’m not quite sure why I picked up this book from the new arrivals shelf at the public library to share with my nearly 13 year old daughter, except for the fact that I grab all the new arrival books. We have a different version of Henny Penny that we would read again and again when my daughter was younger that...

My 7 year old and I just can't get enough of our favorite dumb bunnies family. These books never get old and are, indeed, extremely silly.
