I found this super cute book the other day by Emma Dodd called "You". I mean, just look at it, it's got cute written all over it. I can't wait to give it to Tiny because I think she's going to love it long time - it has gold foil on every page, so. darn. cute.
The Doctor was home today sick as a dog, woke up with a raging 3am fever, and conjunctivitis. But I didn't realise it was conjunctivitis until a friend at preschool looked at him this afternoon and said "Oh you've got conjunctivitis" - and I went "BINGO!" - and then as an aside to myself "Der, why didn't I see that before?! Of course it's conjunctivitis". Poor little dude. Conjunctivitis is the pits, isn't it? So we stayed at home and I read him Cressida Cowell's "How To Be A Pirate".
What books are your big and smalls reading? And you? I have a big stockpile next to my bed, but none of them calling me right now. Any recommendations?

we are reading Charlie and the chocolate Factory- again! We all love it though so everyone is happy.
The Naughty Corner, Mr Chicken goes to Paris, The Magic Pudding and Professor Branestorm's Perilous Pudding
I am reading 'Savvy Chic' by Anna Johnson. I thought it was just a book about being thrifty, but it is actually more like a memoir of her life as a struggling writer. Its very well written and I am really enjoying it.

Sophie is reading Pippi Longstockings, the one that is illustrated by Lauren Child (so the drawings all look like Charlie and Lola).
Roseanna. A Swedish crime book written in the 70's and a Dangerous Journey by Tove. xx
Conjunctivitis sucks. Poor wee Doctor.
I'm bogged down in uni readings; but my small has completely fallen in love with Me... Jane. The picture book about Jane Goodall's free range childhood. I like it, but I don't love it. We went on a mini-break to the library this afternoon. Hopefully there is something new to fall in love with in our over-stuffed library bag.
The two bigger kids are reading Harry Potter, and the smallest one is reading anything by Julia Donaldson (Gruffalo, Room on the Broom, Monkey Puzzle etc).
I am reading Jasper Coe's book What a Carve Up! but it is slow going at the moment. Hope you find something to grab you soon.
