Let's just cut to the chase here:
I've been having a love affair with books since I was really young. Like, 2 and 3 years old young. Like, before I can remember, young.
I remember reading my mom's nursing textbooks at 6.
I remember memorizing This is the House that Jack Built.
Our neighbors gave us copies of old Dick and Jane books to go with the ones my mom let me read from her childhood.
But my all-time, bestest favoritest read-it-to-me-again and again and again and again book?
The Pokey Little Puppy
There was just something about this crazy little dog that couldn't keep his nose out of trouble that fascinated me. And his mommy wouldn't let him have dessert when he wasn't very good, either. Totally empathized with his plight right there!
My copy ended up going to my little brother and sister years and years ago, but I still love his round little face and am so thrilled that this book is still in print. I'll have to add it to my collection for the grandkids we're sure to have someday (did I mention we have 6 kids between my husband and I? Pretty sure our odds of having grandkids aren't too bad).
It's been happily ever after for me and my love affair with books ever since.
