Weekly Low Down on Kids Books 8/08/12
Story time at Half Price Books Humble has been quiet, has been loud, has been vacant, has been crowded. Today, it was just right. We had 9 children, all bright eyed and ready for me to read to them.
I always find it refreshing to be around other people who read, even if they are little people. So it was with great joy that I discovered Hooray for You! A Celebration of You-ness with them today. Marianne Richmond’s picture book is sweet and colorful. Everyone present seemed to enjoy it quite a bit, even the parents. It opened up the opportunity to be a little more inter-active than we usually are at story time, talking about each kid’s favorite colors and other things that made them unique.
This one is definitely a must-have, and I look forward to finding more of Richmond’s treasures tucked away on the shelves of Half Price Books. According to her website, her books are available through Barnes & Noble as well as most other book retailers.
