Mo Willems is my FAVORITE children's author! I was first introduced to him when my son was a first grader. While at the book store, my son wanted to look for the book Knuffle Bunny (another great title by Mo Willems!) once we found it, we found so many other great stories; Knuffle Bunny Too, Knuffle Bunny Free, the Pigeon books, and my personal favorite, the Elephant and Piggie books.
After reading We Are in a Book, I was in love! The illustrations are simple, the words are easy to read, and the humor is delightful for all ages! Seriously, it would be hard to find someone who doesn't at least chuckle after reading one of these books!
In this adventure, Gerald and his best friend Piggie discover that they are in a book that is being read. They get so excited especially when they figure out they can make the reader say a word! However, they start to freak out when they realize that the book will come to an end. They come up with a great solution to their problem that will encourage kids (and parents!) to read this book over and over again!
Mo Willems is a great author for all age groups, but K-2 can't get enough of them!!!
ENJOY!
