We know, we know! Celebrity-linked children’s books certainly don’t need a mention from little old us, but with a song this belt-outable and illustrations so happy and full of popping off the page family fun, how could we resist?

Twenty-eight pages of mystery, mischief and marvelously meandering rhyme take us on a distraction-packed cat-finding mission that introduces youngsters to the numbers 1 to 28 and — perhaps, more importantly — introduces adults to the delightful art of dawdling.

Phew! School went back last week and, rather than having more time on my hands with the Murphlets out of the house, I have been busier than ever. Not much time for blogging, when I’m in and out of the house all day long.
Today, though, I’ve had a few hours at home and so I’ve been doing some catching up. Have just posted ten new reviews to Aussiereviews. It’s hard to choose a pick of the bunch
A month. Over a month! I would say I'm slacking but this is Bryn's Busy Face. I'm working in a school library. I'm in library school. Life is fantastic. Especially since I've discovered I love cataloging. Ahhh the finality and organization of it all.
I've also read tons of wonderful new and new-to-me books. Unfortunately it looks like even my weekly commitment to update is too much. I find myself wanting to unleash about how Life is going and not draft a discourse of school or literature. So for my faithful readers (Mom) I'm going have to suspend this blog or at least let it be known that it will not be regularly updated. I know you're all crushed (Mom, maybe Dad). In the meantime, please visit the fabulous, regularly-updated blogs from my blogroll to your left.
Until next time, kids.
(but i will leave you with my new favorite book ...)

Getting ready for the gallery show, doing some commissions, Lilibeth has an upset stomach--had to rent a carpet cleaner--doing tons of marketing for both biz (office work takes up so much time), Jess started school, and of course, obsessing over my website. Big breath. Here's a page from my color notebook:
You can find such lovely color combination from vintage fabric. :)

Zesty, Seussian rhyme and illustrations hurl us to a crescendo of hardcore harmony. This book’s message is simple: Peace is a choice.
This episode is dedicated to Paul, his stepbrother Dan Johnson (Journey Inside My Mind Podcast), and their families in celebration of Paul returning home from the Navy. Coincidentally, Dan sent an audio comment about Ben’s Trumpet for this show as well.

This simple story of sibling rivalry has been almost an addiction for our younger daughter for as long as we can remember. Fun, monstery illustrations, simple repetitive text and a fair bit of mischief may be the reason.

I think that books that relate to songs are absolutely amazing. One of the books that I completed a text set around was “Following the Drinking Gourd” which you have also listed as one of your favorite books. This is a great way to intertwine different disciplines such as music and reading, and allow kids to make that connection across different subjects. I haven’t read this book, but I think it would be interesting to create a text set around music and literature and provide a lesson plan for how we can introduce the two subjects together.
