It's not just the toys though, the books are so sweet. My Little Monkey & Little Bear Hugs are the newest additions to Sandra Magsamen's award winning Snuggle-Me Stories series.
Featuring a small fleece blanket with an attached plush monkey and teddy bear, babies and loved ones will love to read and play along with the sweet rhyming story, which delivers heartfelt sentiments of love. With playful words and illustrations, these titles are sure to become a favorite for cozy shared lap time reading.
The Author, Sandra Magsamen, is an artist, mom, author of Living Artfully and creator of the Messages From the Heart brand. She designs gifts and ideas that encourage us to live with heart. Sandra Magsamen lives with her family in the Maryland town in which she grew up.
So, I told you my kids love the plush lovies that come with it and the stories, but what do I think? I think these stories are just so sweet. The sentiments, such as "you make me laugh all day and night" and "you're my precious gift sent from above" are more than just words, it is the thoughts and feelings of every parent.
The only part of the book that I didn't like was that the back page where the doll attaches is taller than the rest of the book. Makes it a little awkward to put away, but really? when it's a great book, I'll take it!

Oh my! Picking my favorite childrens book is like trying to pick my favorite child. There are so many. My all time favorite is: All the Places to Love by Patricia Maclachlan. It is beautifully illustrated and written. But my current favorite childrens book is Russell the Sheep. It's just fun. :)
p.s. I am going to link it to facebook tomorrow - I just had a new niece so I have to keep that info up for a bit. But I will tweet about it today. (I am onhertiptoes on twitter).
Oh, I'm a children's librarian and am surrounded with fabulous children's books all day long! *heaven* Some of the favorites are Grumpy Bird by Jeremy Tankard, Ugly Fish by Kara LaReau and anything by Karma Wilson, Mem Fox or Mo Willems.
Selecting just one book would be very difficult, but the one that my kids loved and had their grandma read over and over again is Green Eggs and Ham.

I have so many favorite kids books! We love Mo Willems and David Shannon at our house, but our all time classic favorite has to be "There's a monster at the end of this book" with Grover. its a classic!
My kids and I love "Mrs. Fitz's Flamingos" and "The Giving Tree" and so many more. When I would go to read at the school in their classes Mrs. Fitz would be their first request. Maybe it is how I read it but, it is a fun story.
I love so many, but one favorite is Going on a Bear Hunt by Helen Oxenbury.
Where the Wild Things are. Easy.
I twittered about it.
My Daycare kiddos love books, one of their very favorites is Messy Meals...
We love reading time.

I have this great list of children's books in the comments on my blog from when I asked this question, but I'm too lazy to link to it right now. Please forgive :) MY personal favorites are Mo Willems books, and also the Llama Llama books (Llama Llama Mad at Mama). For this stage anyway.

My little boy loves all the touch and feel books. He just loves feeling all the fuzzy animals.
Right now our favorite book is...I am a Bunny...my 6 month old loves to look at the pictures!
