The best part? We read it enough that Beats was able to "read" it to us. And she nailed it. It was pretty magical.
I highly recommend this one.

Book Review #3: He Came with the Couch
He Came with the Couch by David Slonim is the unexpected hit of read aloud time. Beats chose this book instead of a book about candy princess fairies. Even Ellie doesn't mind reading it several times in one night.
It's funny. It's quirky. The images look simple but have lots of details for the girls to explore. Beats noticed before any of us that the end paper at the beginning matches the couch, but it changes to the chair on the last page. Nothing makes a kid happier than figuring something out before the adults, so explaining this to us is a ritual that happens every night as well.

I highly recommend this one.
