I have a knack for picking out exceptionally sweet children's books at the library. I am a magnet for books with great stories and fabulous pictures. Since I feel this is a talent that I have, I'm going to share with you my latest findings as they are discovered and borrowed. Being a single mom working overtime, I don't alwasy get to enjoy the latest “adult” novels and books. Yet, I love to read. I satsifty my hunger for reading by hitting dual purposes – reading to my child, and enjoying books myself. Children's books are the answer for now :)
