Classic Children's Books and Some Sweet New Ones, too
My grandnephew Ciauss' third birthday party is this Sunday. He's a wild one, and I'm a self-appointed gate keeper of Children's Literature. Oh sure, he has a busy mother and a retired grandma to help, but I'm going to introduce him to some classic children's books and some of my favorites that are written nowadays.
