Sometimes we just need some of those books that are so ridiculous and silly that my kids actually hoot out loud when we're reading them. I know any mention of underwear sends even my three-year-old into giggles, but I try to steer clear of those. (There's plenty of that without bringing it home from the library too--*sigh*) Here are a few of our favorite (non-potty-humor) nonsensical picture books...
The Runaway Dinner, by Allan Ahlberg. I love the rambling, conversational style of this one. It's told just the way a kid would tell a story.
The Monster at the End of this Book, by Jon Stone. This oldie from my childhood continues to pack a good, silly punch.
The Cow Loves Cookies, by Karma Wilson. The expressions on the characters' faces make me smile too.
Silly Sally, by Audrey Wood. Sing-song, predictable words make this one stick in their heads for days.
