The roundup is either at Adventures of an Intrepid Reader or The Captive Reader. Obligatory FTC note: the links are provided through my Amazon Associates account. If you click through and actually purchase one of these books, I’ll get a teeny, tiny payment. But, since no one ever does, and it’s SO much easier using the associates account to put up these links, I’m going to keep doing it.
The Book Nut 
the daughter and i loved 'If I Ran the Zoo' when she was younger (though we may still). we would make up our own animals and where they came from and other such silliness.. we even tried to draw a couple; but the impromptu rhyming in the car was the best. man, i wish now i had written some of those down.

Husband & I loved Al Capone Does My Shirts — I read it, but Husband listened to it on a library Playaway and it was, if possible, even funnier that way. Keep meaning to borrow Al Capone Shines My Shoes but other library books keep filling up our book totes.
