Thanks to the great folks over at Team Mom, my Kids and I were given two new books to read. Never being one to turn down a good book, especially a new one... Who can turn away that new book smell? We jumped at the opportunity!
Leslie Patricelli, is the creator of seven board books starring the adorable bald baby. We had the pleasure of meeting this adorable bald baby, up close and personal in one of Ms. Patricelli's books named Baby Happy, Baby Sad. In this adorably sturdy board book, our bald baby tells his tale of what makes him happy and sad... Losing his balloon, squeezing his cat, being sick, seeing his Daddy! All of these things make baby happy and sad...
We were thrilled with this book because of it's fun illustrations, as well as the easy to read format. With a new reader in the house, it was great for us to see Evan associate the word to the picture... Even occasionally making the baby cry and sound sad.
Leslie didn't stop here with Baby Happy, Baby Sad... She is also the author of 7 other board books, and 2 delightful picture books. Ms. Patricellli has an awesome knack for illustrating her books just perfectly, enabling little minds to be silly, and really to just let imaginations run wild...












We simply love her Yummy Yucky book......absolutely adorable!!
