Picture Book Preschool is a booklist/curriculum that I wrote several years ago and self-published. The link at the top of this page is supposed to be fixed up by Computer Guru Son to provide a place where you can order a copy of my book. However, I thought it might be fun to give out a sample each week of the picture books you would find listed in the book. So these are the picture books we’ll be reading to Z-baby this week:

Goffstein, M.B. A Little Schubert. Harper Row, 1972.
Minarik, Else Homelund. Little Bear. Harper Row, 1957.
Zemach, Margot. Hush Little Baby. Dutton, 1976.
McCloskey, Robert. Lentil. Viking, 1940.
Langstaff, John. Over in the Meadow. Harcourt, 1957.
Cauley, Lorinda Bryan, illus. Old Macdonald Had a Farm. Putnam, 1989.
Wilder, Laura Ingalls. Dance at Grandpa’s. HarperCollins, 1932, 1994.

We already read Lentil last night, the story of a boy who can’t whistle so he teaches himself to play the harmonica. Z-baby said, “I can’t whistle. I can just blow.”
