  5. Oh man!! The illustrations are amazing! The titles draw you in and I LOVE BOOKS!! I know I'm out of the age range but who cares!? I like to read books that I'd read to 3 yr. old Jamesyn and 4 yr. old Jonah! I would lovvvvvvvvee to shop for the books. But I'd have to have my Mom help me make a good choice because almost every title/book I saw I wanted. Here's some I'm interested in: The Great Race, The Boy who grew flowers, CLASSIC POEMS!! I love poetry! Elephant dance, faerie's gift, Stories from the silk Road, Little leap, We're riding on a caravan, we're sailing down the nile, we all went on a safari. I had to get off because I was writting down almost every book hahaha.

  8. Not entering -
    Just wanted to say that I recognize the Barefoot Book of Knights your son is reading in the pic.

    A few years back, we drove across the Midwest with six children and three adults in a Suburban, listening to the storytime cd that comes with it, all of us spellbound! No one even asked for a bathroom break - needless to say, we're all Barefoot fans!
