Top Ten Tuesday: My Children’s Favorites

Hosted by That Artsy Reader Girl

Welcome to another Top Ten Tuesday!  This week’s topic was a freebie.  A couple week’s ago I talked about some favorite books from my childhood.  This week I decided to list some of my children’s favorite books.  I have to be honest.  I think I enjoy some of these as much as my kids!

Hopalong Jack and the Blue Bunnies by Jeri Landers-This book is absolutely beautiful!  The author is a very talented artist and the story is sweet.  I’ve had the opportunity to meet Ms. Landers at an art festival where she was kind enough to sign all of our copies of her books!

A Visitor for Bear by Bonny Becker-Both my kids love all the Bear and Mouse books.

The Library Dragon by Carmen Agra Deedy-My youngest is especially fond of this book as well as the sequel.

Jack and the Beanstalk by Steven Kellogg-This is great to read out loud!

Epossumondas Plays Possum by Coleen Salley-All the Epossumondas books are fun, but this one is the favorite in my house.

  1. This is such a fun topic! All of these books look so fun – I love how colourful children’s books are, and how they often get the very best illustrators.

      I’m glad you enjoyed my list!

      Yes, children’s books are a lot of fun. I might just keep reading them even after my kids have outgrown them!

      Thanks for visiting and commenting. 🙂

  2. This is such a cute topic. We haven’t read any of those yet.

    • Poinsettia says

      Thank you! I’m glad you enjoyed my list. I hadn’t read children’s books in a long time (until I had children of my own), and I rediscovered my love for them. They are so much fun!

      Thank you for visiting and commenting. 🙂

  3. These all look super cute!

  4. CUTE list!

  5. My boy loves tacos, I think he’d love Dragons Love Tacos if it had been out when he was little. Good children’s books have to appeal at least somewhat to adults or they won’t get their parents to read them!

  6. I love this topic. It is so much fun talking about the books you loved as a child.

  7. Dr. Seuss is such a classic!! I love his books.

  8. My kid loved the Dr. Seuss books too when he was younger. It’s always nice to see what the kids are reading now that my kid is a tween and not looking at picture books anymore 🙁

    • Poinsettia says

      I will be a bit sad when my kids don’t look at picture books any more. I might have to keep checking them out even after my kids out grow them!

      Thank you for stopping by and commenting. 🙂

  9. These are awesome! I love the look of A Visitor for Bear. Looks so cute. 🙂

    • Poinsettia says

      Thanks!

      A Visitor for Bear is really cute. Bear acts all grumpy and set in his ways and Mouse is friendly and optimistic. They are a cute pair of friends. All the Bear and Mouse books are great.

      Thank you for visiting and commenting! 🙂

  10. OOh nice topic choice! And cute picks too! That version of Jack the Beanstalk looks familiar…or maybe it’s just the illustrator’s style! Lol.

    Thanks for visiting my TTT post!

    • Poinsettia says

      Thank you! I’m glad you enjoyed my list.

      Steven Kellogg illustrated a lot a books and his style is pretty recognizable. I remember reading some of his books when I was little too.

      Thanks for visiting and commenting. 🙂

  11. I NEED MY MONSTER!! My nephew has this book! He actually has a ton of children’s books and whenever I babysit, I’d read them… to me lol. He reads on his own now so I have the luxury of being the one to read his books instead. I’ve also read A Visitor for Bear at a used books book fair in our place and it was cute.

    • Poinsettia says

      It sounds like you have a lot of fun with your nephew and his books. 🙂

      I’m glad you enjoyed my list. Thank you for stopping by!

  12. Great idea for a topic 🙂 Some of those covers are amazing.

    • Poinsettia says

      Thank you! I’m glad you enjoyed my list.

      I agree, these covers are great, and the illustrations are wonderful too. Thanks for visiting and commenting. 🙂

  13. Super cute! I used to love Jack’s story too

  14. These are so cute and fun! I don’t have kids, but if I had, I’d get Dragons love Tacos for sure! 🙂

    • Poinsettia says

      Dragons Love Tacos is a lot of fun. I’ll be bummed when my kids are out of the picture book phase because I enjoy them so much. I just might have to keep checking them out occasionally any way!

      Thanks for visiting and commenting. 🙂

  15. What a fun list! My daughter and I are big fans of Dragons Love Tacos too, such a funny, silly story.

  16. Fun feature… and though I don’t have a legit excuse to read kids books, I must agree. Sometimes it’s FUN to read these kinds of stories. 🙂

    • Poinsettia says

      It is! I might have to keep reading them even after my kids outgrow them.

      Thanks for visiting and commenting. 🙂

  17. The Epossumondas books are so good.

  18. Nice take on this prompt! Also, some of these children books I’ve read and are absolutely adorable

  19. These all look great. I know the bear books but I don’t think I’ve read any with my toddler yet.

    • Poinsettia says

      Thank you!

      The bear books are wonderful! I hope you get to share them with your toddler soon.

      Thank you for visiting. 🙂
