Our library's summer reading program starts on Monday. I am so excited! I remember participating in summer reading programs when I was growing up and now I get to help Drew and Gracie learn to love the library. They both have been on outings to the library with me almost every week since birth, so going to the library is nothing new for them.
This will be Gracie's second year in the summer reading program. Drew is still too young to sign up and get prizes, but he enjoys listening when I read to Gracie. Our typical method of choosing books is to wander up and down the aisle of picture books and pull books off the shelf at random. We tend to get an interesting selection this way. In the last few months Gracie has shown more interest in choosing her own books, and she will often pick books that we have read together before.
I am always looking for suggestions of books that are "must reads," either picture books, or read-alouds suitable for young children. What are some of your favorite books for children?

Hi- I am rounding up my kids and running them down to our library on Friday. I just posted a little reminder on my blogs about running the little ones down to the library to sign up for the Reader Programs and a little reminder that some libraries offer Grown Up Clubs as well. I review children's books on my site Oneofakindwis.com and also on blogspot blog of the same name- I always love to hear what others are reading in children's books, both chapter and picture.
