What's on our bookshelf

Creed still has the bookshelf that my dad built in his room at our new house and I still fill it with different books about every month or so.  Since he just started up at preschool last month, all of last month's books were about school.
 A few of his favorites:
If You Take a Mouse To School by Laura Numeroff
David Goes to School by David Shannon
Hooway for Wodney Wat by Lynn Munsinger
Lilly's Purple Plastic Purse by Kevin Henkes
The Day Jimmy's Boa Ate the Wash by Trinka Hakes Noble and Steven Kellogg
 This month we've rotated in books about, books, the alphabet, and counting.
 Born to Read by Marc Brown
We Are in a Book by Mo Willems
Have I Got a Book for You by Melanie Watt

The Z Was Zapped by Chris Van Allsburg
Alphabet Under Construction by Denise Fleming
Chicka Chicka Boom Boom by Bill Martin Jr., John Archambault and Lois Ehlert
Antics by Catherine Hepworth
A is For Salad by Mike Lester
The Hidden Alphabet by Laura Vaccaro Seegar


Ten Terrible Dinosaurs by Paul Stickland
Chicka Chicka 1, 2, 3 by Bill Martin Jr., Michael Sampson and Lois Ehlert
Count! by Denise Fleming
1, 2, 3, To the Zoo by Eric Carle
Click, Clack, Splish, Splash: A Counting Adventure by Doreen Cronin


Happy reading!

I want that bookshelf. I made one, but it fell off the wall the other month and I feel sad my kids don't have a bookshelf anymore with their books facing outward. I swear it makes such a big difference in how much they grab books and want to read them with me.

I'm going to steal this idea.
