    Favorite Book of the Month:

    My Review for Which Shape Should I Be
    It good babies to Toddlers. Ages 00/04 (Newborn to 4 year olds)
    A circle, a square—each shape everywhere . . . Can you choose which shape each picture should be? In this delightful concept board book, toddlers will giggle at the silliness of a square egg or a round star, all while learning to recognize nine shapes. And they’ll learn that God made each of us the perfect shape too!
