A Favorite

As a mom of two book-lovers, I am often brought a stack of books and asked to "read the book, please?" And for those of you who have read books for a while to your kids there are the favorites and the ones you wish they didn't like so much. =)

This one I love so and am always happy to see amongst the stack. So I thought I'd share it with you all, so you could share in the joy of the "Wrapping Paper Romp." We gave this one to Abi at her first Christmas when she was prime-subject to her own Wrapping Paper Romp.

So without further delay, I give you a favorite of ours - or at least mine.

 "Wrapping Paper Romp by Patricia Hubbell. Pictures by Jennifer Plecas.

 Baby's got a present, a present in a box. It's time to do the wrapping paper, wrapping paper romp.

 Crinkle it, Wrinkle it. Wear it for a crown. Listen to the paper snap. Flap it up and down.

 Lift the lid up off the box. What is that inside? Tissue paper, tissue paper, hold it up and hide. 

 Play a little peek-a-boo. Tear. Tear. Tear. Hear the paper rustle. Pat it on your hair. 

 What's beneath the tissue paper? What does Baby see? A family of teddy bears- One, two... THREE!

 Fling the teddies on the floor. What has Baby found? Another piece of tissue paper! Wave it all around.

 Look at all the paper. Look who's in the box. It's fun to do the wrapping paper, wrapping paper romp!

"The End."

- Hope you enjoyed. =)
