We're big fans of books around here... you can tell by how much his shelves are busting at the seams. At least a couple times a day I'll find him in his room with a pile of books he pulled down from the shelves, turning and patting the pages while babbling. Brown bear brown bear is his all-time favorite and a little over a month ago I discovered that if you just say the name of the book he'll go get it and bring it to you. He bobs his head and cracks up when you read it too. Kid really loves brown bear! Eric Carle books are such a classic and have always been a favorite, I'm glad Beck agrees.
Coincidentally, right around the time he first did his Brown bear "trick" we picked up a couple pair of the Eric Carle pajamas collection at Gymboree—these polar bear ones and the fox ones too. Just call us mega Eric Carle fans over here. They are his first set of two-piece pj's and just so darn cute.
p.s. We have a list of more favorite books here
