Lilli's Library List

I braved this trip to the library alone.  Our books were seriously overdue and it had to be done with or with out a second pair of hands/eyes.  The last trip we got some great books and a couple amazing DVD's.  Scholastic's Weston Woods collection is a cartoon version of her favorite stories.  Complete with  a read along option, she couldn't get enough.  So we horded them for way longer than our allotted time and probably racked up some fees.  I think it was worth it.

This trip we left with 17 books and three DVD's.  The DVD's are two Scholastics and one Sesame Street video she pulled off of the shelf when I wasn't looking.  We tend to go with some of our favorite authors, but we're venturing out into new territories.  Recently, Lilli has started to enjoy the beginner reader books like the Biscuit series by Alyssa Satin Capucilli. Of our 17 choices so far, we found some great books.  Here are a few:


  • Naked Mole Gets Dressed by Mo Willems 
  • The Napping House by Audrey Wood
  • How Do Dinosaurs Get Well Soon? by Jane Yolen
  • Froggy Gets Dressed by Jonathan London
  • Pretzel by Margaret and H. A. Rey
  • Sleep, Black Bear, Sleep by Jane Yolen
  • Curious George Rides a Bike by  H. A. Rey
  • Llama Llama Misses Mama by Anna Dewdney
  • If You Give a Moose a Muffin by Laura Numeroff
  • Don't Let the Pigeon Stay Up Late! by Mo Willems
