My Pick
Title: Chester's Masterpiece
Author and Illustrator: Melanie Watt
Review: This is probably the funniest picture book I have ever read. It had me laughing out loud right in the middle of the library. Samuel put down the toys he was playing with and sat down with me on the floor in the book aisle and we read it together. It's so funny. Seriously everyone needs to read this book. Adults will love it. Kids will love it. Chester is quite a character. Imagine my delight when I turned back to the bookshelf and discovered that there was a whole series of Chester books! We took them all home with us of course and enjoyed every single one of them.
Sam's Pick of the Week
Title: Dinosaur Roar!
Author and Illustrator: Paul and Henrietta Stickland
Review: We had a lot of favorites this week, but when I laid out a bunch of the books and asked Samuel to choose his favorite he didn't even hesitate. "Dinosaur Roar" wins for sure! When I asked him what his favorite page was he said, "All of the pages!" The book is simple, rhyming, and catchy. No wonder Samuel likes it.

I haven't read CHESTER yet, but it sounds like I ought to rectify that ASAP! :)
