The Cuddle Book
Maya added "achoo" to her vocabulary today. Grandpa sneezed twice and scared her. So he and Nana made a game of it, so that now whenever anyone sneezes, Maya say, "Atoo." Cute, huh?
Here's a cute book I've got to get back to the library tout suite because it's overdue. The Cuddle Book, by Guido van Genechten, is petite and adorable. The text describes how different animals cuddle.
Monkeys cuddle gently
and turtles cuddle slowly.
And in an homage to carrying your baby:
For kangaroos,
cuddling is easy
(because they are always so close)...
But it's not always easy:
...porcupines have to cuddle very carefully!
Have fun asking questions about why do you think that is. What do you know about crabs that makes cuddling so hard?
BTW, everybody say congratulations to Nicole, who is doing her first paid storytime tomorrow. Good luck.
