Calling all moms, kids, big kids and CHILDREN'S BOOK lovers!

BEST CHILDREN'S BOOK OF SPRING

I marvel at how children's books transport us to a whole other plateau; or in the words of
my son, a whole other "realm". Kudos to him for coming up with that one.

Books in general are a whole other world, but children's books really do stand apart for the
whimsy, fantasy and the uplifting feelings that they impart.

I get all animated when I read to my kids - it's so much fun! Puts me in a fun state of
mind; oh and it puts them in a fun and expanded state of mind!

In honor of all those awesome children's books out there and the authors who create them,
I'm going to have a contest - which book will be the favorite #1 winner?

1. Do you have a book that your children absolutely love?



2. How about one that you absolutely love?



3. Is there a book that you know of that just doesn't get as much credibility as it should?



I'd love to hear your feedback...please drop me a comment with your book nominee or send a message to funbooks4kids09@gmail.com.

I'll add more nominees to the list below, based on the feedback that I receive, and then
we'll do a vote for the Best Children's Book of Spring.

* Deadline for nominee suggestions: March 31st 2009*

* Deadline for your vote on the best book: April 4th 2009*


Nominations list (a couple of my kids' faves):
