Peter and the Secret of Rundoon

I was at the library trying to find an audiobook that was kid friendly and yet would be some what interesting to me, and I saw this book. Peter and the Secret of Randoon this is the third installment of the Barry and Pearson's Peter Pan series.  It was a fun listen.  In this book, you learn why Peter can separate from his shadow, how the croc swallowed the clock, and how the lost boys got to the island.  If you are reading the series it's worth continuing.  Just some fun brain candy.

First finished book of 2012!

... was "One Fish, Two Fish, Red Fish, Blue Fish", by Dr. Seuss (Rachel's bedtime story). Honestly, I am not sure why this book is so famous.  There's no discernable plot, the rhymes are ridiculous, and it's really long. Rachie loves it though, so we put it on the back of the shelf when she's not looking.

Kids book count too!

Well they may not be the most significant books, but it is important that our kiddos get to contribute...so tonight Mommy, August and Rachel read "Five Little Monkeys Jumping on the Bed" by Eileen Christelow, which is a little book about the perils 5 little monkeys face while they engage in nocturnal tomfoolery.

We also read "The Great Monkey Race" by Erica Maese and illustrated by Janet Samuel, a book about 10 monkeys that race through the jungle as the other animals cheer them on. It is a cute touch and feel book. Auggie really liked it. I can add an amazon link if anyone really wants it, but really???
