Children's books read aloud, plain and simple, by Nona (it's Italian for grandma). Occasionally my sweet side-kick pipes up, adding a drop of perfection to the readings.

If Animals Kissed Good Night

Mr. Seahorse

A new favorite of ours, Mr. Seahorse is a delightful read. Following faithful Mr. Seahorse around the neighborhood, listeners meet his many daddy friends, each of whom is actively involved in raising their own families. As always with Mr. Carle's works, were you able to get your hands on a printed copy, the illustrations will not disappoint you.

Baby Bear, Baby Bear, What Do You See?

Baby Bear, Baby Bear, What Do You See? , written by Bill Martin, Jr. and illustrated by Eric Carle, is one of a series of books that very young children can truly appreciate. Simple words, repetition, review of colors, and the introduction of (possibly) new animals make this a hit in the nursery and preschool crowd.

Go, Dog. Go!

An all-time favorite for kiddos, Go, Dog. Go! bounces through numbers and colors and opposites for wee listeners in such an energetic way that they've no idea that learning is taking place. Sooooo...Listen, kiddos. Listen!

The Pout Pout Fish

A delightful newer book that tumbled into our library, this story simply had to make it onto the podcast!

The Very Busy Spider

A favorite by Eric Carle, it seems a shame to read aloud without the illustrations...but if you just listen, the story itself sparkles as much as a dew-dotted spider web!
