My pile(s) of books to read

It always starts with just one book, then it seems to grow exponentially, and then I have piles of books to read.  They seem to stare at me with all of those wonderful recommendations blurting out "Read me because I am the one that will be the best according to...!" Yet, they wait patiently.  This is my latest pile, but I just ordered some books from Scholastic, and my cart is full on Amazon, and there is always that Junior Library Guild order coming this week.  What is a children's librarian to do?

I read a picture book, of course.

For today's review, BALL, by Mary Sullivan.  This book reminds me so much of my own dog, that I couldn't stop from laughing out lout, all by myself, in my office.  I love to share books like this with my students, so they understand that not only words can tell a story, but pictures too.  Check out the rest of Mary Sullivan's books at http://marysullivan.com/books-and-stuff.
