Get Your Read On

While I have never recommended anything on my blog, I am still not quite sure anyone reads it, I thought I would go ahead and do it this once as this book has become our new favorite in the house and for good reason.
Behold 'Mrs. McGee's Coconut'....
Chris found this book for Shayden for Christmas and it has been a blast to read and reread...even up to four times a day.  This quirky lady, Mrs. McGee, has a great adventure with her coconut.  For you parents, its not too long and not too short with just enough comedic flavor to keep you reading again and again.  
I think my favorite part about this book was Shayden's fascination with coconuts and how excited he was when Chris surprised him by bringing one home from work one night...



After playing with it for an hour or so he insisted they open it up just like the monkey's in the book...and now we can officially cross off Shayden's list - coconut breaking, eating and drinking!  Well done Dad, well done.
