Children's Literature: Pick of the Week

OK, so maybe this isn't the fine sort of literature that would make a great children's literature list, but for beginning readers, these are great little books: Now I'm Reading! for Beginning Readers. This hard backed cover (what you see in the picture) holds 10 small paperbacks. My second son is learning to read right now, and I actually enjoy these stories. Can you imagine a ten page book in which you actually look forward to seeing what happens to the fat cat? What happens when the hot dog gets lost in the fog whilst standing on a log? They are just hilarious books, and the illustrations are what "make" these books work. They were written by Nora Gaydos and illustrated by BB Sams, and published by a company called Innovative Kids.
