I just read Boynton's, the Barnyard Dance to an 18 month old this week! My own copy, mind you.
I just said that you're pretty. Even when you're covered in...engine grease, you're... No, especially, especially when you're covered in engine grease.

Spike's Bitches 33: Weeping, crawling, blaming everybody else
[NAFDA] Spike-centric discussion. Lusty, lewd (only occasionally crude), risque (and frisque), bawdy (Oh, lawdy!), flirty ('cuz we're purty), raunchy talk inside. Caveat lector.

Shit's all sorts of different now.
LOVE Barnyard Dance. We had it from the library - I haven't bought it yet.

I had to buy it because it gripped me with such hysterics in the bookstore when I casually picked it up. The tempo is perfect and the drawings delightful. The only other one I have is the ABC book.
Does Em have a favorite? (or, you know...you?)

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."
JZ is always pimping Sandra Boynton's Philadelphia Chickens which comes with a CD and many catchy tunes. Also, Meryl Streep.

Our favorites are "Horns to Toes" and "HIPPOS GO BERSERK".
I usually do "Horns to Toes" in an over-exaggerated Scarlett O'Hara southern accent.

We love Sandra Boynton around here, too, but I've never heard of Philadelphia Chickens, Horns to Toes, Hippos Go Berserk, or Barnyard Dance.
I'ma have to go shopping again soon.

I can recite Hippos Go Berserk by heart. It was the first Boynton book we got and I read it to Em every morning when she nursed.
One hippo all alone,
calls two hippos on the phone...
