Black 'n' Gold Girl's Book Spot

While browsing the Goodreads giveaway section last night I came across a super adorable book-- Jane Eyre for babies! You might be thinking how in the world is that appropriate for babies like I did at first but no, this book looks great and something any mommy (or daddy) who is a fan of the classics would want to get for their little one. They also have a...wait for it...a  Pride and Prejudice version, Romeo and Juliet and Alice in Wonderland ! Yep, totally cute. If I ever have kids they will be getting these. Heck, I'm tempted to buy them right now! I can think of no better way to introduce a child to books and the love of a good story than through these board books. I haven't read them or even seen them in the store but from what I've seen of the previews on Amazon they're a children's library must-have.

I thought it would be interesting to sort of catalogue some of the books that I grew up reading. You all know that I love to read romance, Christian fiction and historical fiction but I didn't start out reading those. From Clifford the Big Red Dog to Gone with the Wind my literary choices have certainly changed but no matter what you or I may like the important thing to do is to keep reading! You never know what you may learn or if you're like me it will encourage you in your "grown up" life as far as furthering your education or the career path you will choose. Clifford the Big Red Dog by Norman Bridwell Does it get any better than a huge, lovable dog? I think I owned every Clifford book by the time I was in kindergarten! ********** The Cat in the Hat by Dr. Suess I think any Dr. Suess book is a staple in just about everyone's young life. ********** Disney Storybooks: Sleeping Beauty , Beauty and the Beast , Cinderella Didn't every little girl read these...
