Audrey Wood

We have been reading books by Audrey Wood and we love them. Here are a few of our favorites.

 "The Napping House"
This book came with a CD and we had a blast listening to the Napping house songs in the car.

 "Silly Sally"
Audrey Wood's website has images from her books for coloring.

 "Quick as a cricket"

Kids can relate to this one :) These books have fabulous words and beautiful illustrations.
