In my family, we love to read! Everyday after school, My son and I read together...it's our special cuddle time. He is currently in love with Eric Litwin's Pete the Cat series...particularly I Love My White Shoes and Rocking in My School Shoes.
Recently while out, my son saw a big kid playing with a tiny robot. He was so excited about the robot that I promised him I would find the robot and purchase it on line. Well...I found the robot on Amazon. While shopping on Amazon, (one of my ABSOLUTE favorite pastimes) I decided to order Pete the Cat: I Love My White Shoes. My good friend, the UPS man delivered them both today! I opened up the package and placed the book and the robot on a shelf in the foyer to greet my little man when he walked through the door from school.
When he and my husband came through the the door, I heard "WOW", "Awesome", "Yes!", and squeals of delight!!! I thought to myself..."Oh, he found his robot." ....BUT when he walked into the family room...he was holding THE BOOK!!!!!! #winning! The robot remains unopened in the foyer...and my baby just walked out the door to run errands with his dad with his Pete the Cat book in hand (insert "Proud Mama" smile here)!
Listen to Pete the Cat with your little ones with the free downloads found at http://www.harpercollinschildrens.com/feature/petethecat/ Love it!!!
