It's Fundamental!

As you might expect, we're fans of early reading and take every reasonable opportunity for some quality literary exposure. Current books in rotation include (in no particular order): P.D. Eastman's Go Dog. Go!, Matthew Porter's ABC, Bruce Degen's Jamberry, Nikki McClure's Awake to Nap, Dr. Seuss's ABC: An Amazing Alphabet Book!, Margaret Wise Brown's The Runaway Bunny, Susan Meyers' Everywhere Babies, Alexandra Day's Carl Goes Shopping, Martin Waddell's Owl Babies, Phyllis Root's One Duck Stuck and Mark Alan Stamaty's Who Needs Donuts?. Clearly, it's a heavy rotation. (Like, heavy because that's a lot of stories, man.)

Right now, obvious favorites are books with sharply contrasting images or those featuring drawings of babies, but Nora's generally pretty into the entire reading experience. Ah, the no-place-like-home feelings fostered by a cozy lap, vocal shenanigans supplied by either parent and the turning of pages. What more could a girl ask?


Oh, right: book make out sessions. Sometimes you just have to get close to the art.


Really close.
