As I headed out to the library, I grabbed the bag I’ve been using all summer. I’d forgotten that with the girls back in school, I’m responsible for all their reading material as well.

I’m going to need to take the bigger bag for a while.

For A/K:
The Duchess Bakes a Cake, by Virginia Kahl
Balloon on the Moon, by Dan McCann/Illus by Nathan Hale
Just in Case, by Yuyi Morales
That New Animal, by Emily Jenkins/Illus. by Pierre Pratt
Fribbity Ribbit!, by Suzanne C. Johnson/Illus. by Debbie Tilley**
Itty Bitty, by Cece Bell**
Mommy Go Away!, by Lynne Jonell and Petra Mathers
Poppy & Ella, by Jef Kaminsky
Rhyming Dust Bunnies, by Jan Thomas
Cornelius P. Mud, Are You Ready for Bed?, by Barney Saltzberg
Wow! America!, by Robert Neubecker

For C:
Actually, she informed me after school yesterday, that her teacher has the largest classroom library in the school, and she may not need me to do the choosing for her. She’ll just get what she wants at school. (That said, her teacher is a woman after my own heart!)

For M:
Stardust: Being a Romance Within the Realms of Faerie, by Neil Gaiman/Pictures by Charles Vess*
The President’s Daughter, Ellen Emerson White*
Larklight, by Philip Reeve
Stargirl, by Jerry Spinelli
Warrior Princess, by Jerry Spinelli*
M is for Magic, Neil Gaiman

For me:
Willow, by Julia Hoban
Rules, by Cynthia Lord

The roundup is either at Reading Adventures or A Striped Armchair.

*Ones that M eventually read.
**Picture books we really liked.
