Fuzzy Bee and Friends
by Priddy Books.
It is a soft-sided book with a cute rhyming verse and lots to touch, pull, squeeze and crinkle. Very colorful. At age 2, Kate still enjoys it.

For Toddlers/Preschoolers
Mooncake
By Frank Asch
Kate recently discovered the moon. So I read her this book one night at bedtime and she wants me to read it every night. I have to admit I actually don't mind repeating this one. It is a cute story.

What! Cried Granny - An almost bedtime story
By Kate Lum
Patrick is staying over at grandma's and it is time for bed. Oh no! He doesn't have a bed at her house - among other things . . . This book is very entertaining and funny! Kids will be participating by the end of the story. Best when read with voices for each of the two characters!

P is for Pelican - A Louisiana Alphabet
by Anita Prieto
A great local alphabet book. Very true to the area and great illustrations. I bought it as a gift for Jack since this is where he was born. This is a great book for kids to have about where they live. Oysters, Crawfish, Mardi Gras and more!
