Anyone else read " Elliot and the Big Wave " ?

My DS just loved it.

What about the " Ebb and Flo " books by the same author as the " Daisy " books

We get 18 books every 3 weeks from 2 different libraries, which reminds me I

must go today!

Couldn't agree more, another fave of ours atm is the Gruffalo, whereas I

can't stand having to read Bob the builder - they are so badly written

The best library book we've had recently was " The Gruffalo " . We all

enjoyed it and I never got fed up of reading it - even doing silly

voices for each of the animals.

We've just got Cockatoos by Quentin Blake out - I thought counting books had

to be tedious.... I'm off to Waterstone's on Sunday to buy this one!! But I

*always* refuse to read the TV spinoff books (except the Maisy lift-the-flap

books which are actually quite funny!)

We have this one to (and before anyone asks YES the girls have a private library

lol - both dh and I are mad about books so the girls get loads) But I don't

like it much and neither does Phoebe (Eloisa being to young really) we have read

it once or twice but Phoebe is really not interested last time I attempted I got

told NO MUMMY and got handed you can swim Jim instead (that is another fun book

btw ;o) )

Lonnie Phoebe & Eloisa's mama

& expecting a Christmas delivery...

My therapist told me the way to achieve true inner peace is to finish what you

start.

So far today, I have finished 2 bags of chips and a Chocolate cake.

I feel better already.

We love Biggest Bed (mind you, I think I'd be dropping hints about CP

neutering vouchers...) and Gruffalo.

the Emu and the Emu are also wonderful.

Snap - we love it too. The first time it took me until 3 to work out

that the birds were hiding, then we went back to check out 1 and 2.

Now we know and DS loves it.

Another good one that we all really like and don't tire of (MIL bought

from her hols) is " The Little Beaver and the Echo " .

I have just discovered that one of our favourite books, which we

thought was out of print, isn't. It has just been brought out in

paperback with a slightly different title. (Annoying as we'd've got

it for DHs niece's birthday had we known)

It's Toad (formerly The Tale of a Monstrous Toad) by Ruth Brown
