Because the floor in our house is being replaced and every piece of furniture must be moved, I'm going through everything we own and culling what can be sent to the thrift shop or trashed. For this reason, this morning I've put my hands on all the books my older brother has given the children through the years. No one has better taste than he does. Recalling the hours over the years of reading and rereading these books to my kids brings tears to my eyes. My older brother may be nearly silent, but he is silently awesome. Thank you, Brother! I love you.

Each cover links to more information about each book. 
If you are shopping for little kids, look no further.

  1. and a reelio, treelio little pet dragon! (Had it memorized when I was a kid.) I read that Ogden never wrote his work down. His wife had to do it for him or we'd have lost that art forever.
