In a couple of hours, I'm heading out to Smith Station to be a guest reader for my friend's kindergarten class. In honor of this fun, I've put together a list of my top 10 favorite children's books (rankings based how often I requested the book as a little one and biased by how much I still love the books).

1. Harold and the Purple Crayon

2. Good Night Moon

3. Tweedlebugs At Work

4. Pat the Bunny

5. The Giant Jam Sandwich

6. Cloudy with a Chance of Meatballs

7. Where the Wild Things Are and In the Night Kitchen (both Sendak books)

8. Three little horses (this was the book we always read and the grandparents)

9. Caps for Sale

10. Buck Rogers in the 25th Century (pop-up book!)
