 | Queenie, One of the Family by Bob Graham
Buy used from: $21.21 I love Bob Graham's books because his parents always have tattoos and earrings. In this book, the dad irons and knits baby socks.

 | Bartholomew and the Oobleck: (Caldecott Honor Book) (Classic Seuss) by Dr. Seuss

 | Winter Days in the Big Woods (My First Little House Books) by Laura Ingalls Wilder
Buy new: $6.99 / Used from: $0.01 We both love these adaptations of the Little House books. The pictures are beautiful and modeled after the classic Garth Williams illustrations.
