My favorite children's book and why I love it: I adored Peter Pan when I was little, and believed he would come to my window. I would beg my parents to call me "Wendy" when they said good night, so that Peter would think he was in the right place. :)
My children's favorite book: My baby is two months old, and I read him Good Night, Gorilla every night before bed. He usually falls asleep before the end.
A children's book illustrator I adore: Chris Van Allsburg, who illustrated The Polar Express, Jumanji, and the magical book, The Mysteries of Harris Burdick.
If my life so far were turned into a children's book the title would be: The New Mama Who Got No Sleep

Thanks Joanna!

"The New Mama Who Got No Sleep" - think I've read that one. I'm going to check out good night Gorilla - looks cute!
Lovin the baby's pic
I've been reading Goodnight Gorilla to my daughter. Now that I've read it a hundred times, I'm dying to know: why does the armadillo have a pet Ernie?
I love the picture...so sweet!
