book love

We love Around the World with Mouk by dreamy illustrator Mark Boutavant. The illustrations are so full of whimsy and each page has so much color and detail that we read and look at the pages of Mouk's world traveling adventures over and over again.

I will start sharing more of the lovely books that are getting read in our little home. I love reading and I think my girls are starting to have a love for it too. They look at the pictures and make up their own stories, well, maybe that isn't exactly reading, but that is a start. I always say reading is like watching a movie in your mind. Once I start a good book, everything goes to the wayside as I am not able to stop until it is done. Anyone else the same way? So tell me, what books are you reading right now (for yourself or for the little ones)?

Buttons...

In pretty colors...


In pretty shapes...


In wonderful blues...


And some pinks too...


Makes my True a happy girl...
Of course, books must always be involved and buttons turned into a learning lesson (remember, I used to be a teacher...). True loved making connections with all the buttons in her hands and all the wonderful buttons in her book.

Books about buttons make True a really happy girl!

*Buttons from The Fairie Cupboard's shop...
