For kids Leonardo the Terrible Monster is my new favorite book!
Anya: We should drop a piano on her. It always works for that creepy cartoon rabbit when he's running from that nice man with the speech impediment. Giles: Yes, or perhaps we could paint a convincing fake tunnel on the side of a mountain.

Literary Buffistas 3: Don't Parse the Blurb, Dear.
There's more to life than watching Buffy the Vampire Slayer! No. Really, there is! Honestly! Here's a place for Buffistas to come and discuss what it is they're reading, their favorite authors and poets. "Geez. Crack a book sometime."

aka "The artist formerly known as Corwood Industries."
Anything Mo Willems wrote is great, Aimee, but Leonardo and Knuffle Bunny (and now Knuffle Bunny Too) are favorites in our house.

So come, my friends, be not afraid/We are so lightly here/It is in love that we are made; In love we disappear
Knuffle Bunny (and Too) are totally adored by our wee toddler object, with the bonus of NOT making the parents want to spork their own eyes out on repeat reads.

Ok, that's funny cause there was a Mo Willems conversation elsewhere and I didn't even notice he was the author of Leonardo!!

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset
I was just talking about Knuffle Bunny with a co-worker the other day! We like it 'cause it's local.
