Now I Am Big!

These are fabulous ([b:Now I Am Big! 13591207 Now I Am Big! Stephen Krensky http://photo.goodreads.com/books/1342571880s/13591207.jpg 19179241] and [b:I Can Do It Myself! 13591210 I Can Do It Myself!

While they are bright and odd colors, these board books are just the right size and sit perfectly on our early readers shelf next to our I Can Read! and our Dr. Seuss Beginner Books. Simple enough sentences that AppleBlossom repeats them after me (and then again to herself in playing to read). I think as she really begins to learn to read these will fit in well as early readers. Yet even OrangeBlossom, who will turn one year old in just over a week (or at this review in July) loves these. Sturdy enough for her to play with, she often carries one around and brings it me to read. Both girls love them. There is the message learn to be a big kid with a bit more independence is fun if even a little overwhelming. Having books where we can point out all sorts of things that make this an important time in change and growth is awesome. I am truly loving the books from Abrams Appleseed and I hope they keep up this type of quality reads we're adding to our bookshelves. Thanks to Abrams for providing a copy for review.
