“Sparrow bellies cheep and chirp. People’s bellies belch and burp!”<\/em><\/p>\n

About once a week, the boys and I walk to our local library. It is one of their favorite places in the whole world, and I know this because they literally jump up and down when I suggest we go, and they are perhaps the most well-behaved when we are there (other moms have actually come up to congratulate me on my kids’ behavior at the library, which, if you know my kids\u00a0outside\u00a0<\/em>of the library, is quite laughable). And this is a good thing, because frankly, I can barely contain Emil, what with all the outlets and tables to climb upon and librarian’s offices to ransack.<\/p>\n

So… in light of my major slacking off with the DIY fun this month (cut me some slack, all of my creative juices are going toward holiday gifting and holiday party shenanigans), I thought I would feature a favorite book once a week instead. Just until things settle down. Today’s book: The Belly Book<\/strong> by Fran Manushkin (her name alone makes me love this book!) and illustrated by the ever-talented Dan Yaccarino.<\/p>\n

It’s very simple, very cute, and Emil’s most favorite book at the moment. Plus, the illustrations are just fantastic.<\/p>\n

Happy reading!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
