![]() ![]() The second day, I included An Apple Pie for Dinner in my stack of suggested books for naptime (Ada) and bedtime (Ellie). Our first time through the new book, Ada (age 2-1/2) and Ellie (age 6) listened quietly then requested Where the Wild Things Are. So I introduced An Apple Pie for Dinner with some trepidation. (Adult books are largely confined to the floor-to-ceiling bookcases in the basement and one small bookcase in Paul's and my bedroom.) We are readers. Additional children's books are stashed on bedside tables, busy bags in the car, and beside nearly every chair in the house. We have three bookcases, each with 3-4 shelves, stuffed full of children's picture books and board books. And they each definitely have favorite books they like to read. They're sort of "off" new things, lately. What if I didn't like the book? Worse, what if my kids didn't like it? ![]() At first I was excited! Then I was worried. This is my first "sponsored" review, by which I mean that the publisher sent me a copy of the book to review. This month, for Barrie Summy's Book Review Club, I'm writing about An Apple Pie for Dinner retold by Susan Vanhecke and illustrated by Carol Baicker-McKee. ![]()
