The Pokey Little Puppy

Wednesday March 1, 2017

Steve and Cindy sent Miss Selah June a box in the mail. It was a whole set of Little Golden Books. Steve thought that she particularly needed a copy of The Pokey Little Puppy. That was the first book she wanted to read. Every time we came to the little puppies counting “one, two, three, four…. Now where is that pokey little puppy?” she would just laugh and laugh. She loves it. And she loves the illustrations. I noticed that books written for kids now have far fewer words per page and have far more visual stuff going on. It was nice to go a slow pace on each page and to enjoy the story for the story rather than the pictures.
