If You Give a Mouse a Foot Book

Jadon LOVES reading, especially at bedtime. The Foot Book was one of the first books he learned to read all by himself, which was the CUTEST thing ever to hear. We sat amazed as he "read" each page over and over again, and though his speech isn't the clearest to some people, Mama and Daddy could understand every word he was pronouncing, and he honestly got every word right. Watching your child grow and learn is soooo amazing!

After The Foot Book, he quickly picked up reading If You Give a Mouse a Cookie, If You Give a Pig a Pancake, and now his new favorite "Green Eggs and Ham." Every night, he has to read ALL of these, and sometimes twice, if he asks, "Puhleeese, Daddy?" Once you hear him reading the words, "...he's thristy...soooo," you'll understand why we can't say no. Just adorable!


By the way, most mornings these days, Jadon asks to have "white green eggs and ham" for breakfast. LOL
