We read Alice stories a lot. Every time before going for a nap, bed time, or even just because. We have some of the standards from Dr. Seuss and Sandra Boynton. We also have some others that we've discovered that I, uhh, I mean Alice, enjoys.
I read How to catch a star by Oliver Jeffers at least once a day. Usually around 3 times a day. I think that it's a good length, interesting story, and most important is that it has a space ship. Every good story has a space ship in it.
The second lesser known book (to me) was Big Bear Hug by Nicholas Oldland. Funny, nice art, and lots of room to "tweak" the story as I go. The only issue right now is that we have a non-board version of the book which means I have to hold it really far away while still making sure Alice doesn't decide to jump off my lap or rip off my mustache. As little girls and monkeys are known to do.
Good books.
