This book is very familiar to me and I want to claim I knew it from childhood, but I am not sure. From a favorite artist ([a:Martha Alexander|185193|Martha Alexander|http://www.goodreads.com/assets/nophoto/nophoto-U-50x66-251a730d696018971ef4a443cdeaae05.jpg]) of a beloved board book, [b:A You're Adorable|11221132|A You're Adorable|Martha Alexander|http://d.gr-assets.com/books/1320565325s/11221132.jpg|1516715], this is an 8x8 of an assortment of poems and prayers. Many we also have in our [b:Prayers for Children|616650|Prayers for Children|Eloise Wilkin|http://d.gr-assets.com/books/1320491773s/616650.jpg|601217], but others are new to me. This book is perfect for reading aloud to my young preschooler and toddler. It is also full of selections just long enough for my three year old to memorize and I'm sure later will be great picks for short copywork bits.
I bought this for Sonlight P3/4.
