One of our favorite children's books is "The Very Hungry Caterpillar". When Hunter was first becoming interested in books he would sit through about half of a book at a time - except this one! I could read this one to him 3 times through before he would tire and want down. When he started to talk he loved to say those words ("...but he was still hungry!") at the right time. I love repetitive books like this one because it allows non-readers to be an active participant in the story. As you can see, Hunter also loved to "read" this story to Graysen when she was little. He was thrilled when I found her a "Caterpillar" onsie that she could wear as he read her the story. I'm sure we've got many more readings of this family favorite ahead of us!

ps - this is the first scrapblog I've done without using a template! :0)
