Spot


The last time we went to the library Ara picked up Spot loves school by Eric Hill and asked to check it out. Since then it has been a bedtime favorite. It's a board book with very minimal words so I usually embellish and ask Ara questions about what she thinks the characters are doing. Spot is a dog, he has three friends; a hippo, crocodile, and a monkey. On one of the pages all the animals are lined up at school with their lunch boxes, and our conversation went like this;

Me: What does Spot have in his lunch box?
Ara: Yogurt balls
Me: What does monkey have?
Ara: A banana.
Me: And hippo?
Ara: Grapes.
Me: What about crocodile?
Ara: STEAK!


I liked that all the kids/animals had healthy snacks (yogurt balls are close enough) and I thought the steak bit was hilarious.
