We love books by Cynthia Rylant. All books by Cynthia Rylant.
We adore her Poppleton
We love her characters and their creative, fun adventures.
We love her exploration of friendships and everyday (yet special!) experiences: setting aside a day to read at the library, camping out in the backyard, buying a new bed, attending a pancake breakfast, going for a boat ride, taking the bus to the beach, sewing a special quilt with friends (shown here).
Her stories feel honest. They are often funny and always kind.
She writes books with such heart.
Oh, we love Cynthia Rylant.
Wondering about some of our other favorite authors? We particularly love children’s books by Kevin Henkes, A. A. Milne
Thank you for introducing good books for us! They help me a lot to find books for my girl. We sure will try to borrow them next time!!
Hooray! I really think you’ll like them!
So thrilled that Miss Leyba likes these books — especially Poppleton, which is so funny!!
I also really like this series by CR — “The Cobble Street Cousins” — love their small format that fits in the hand, and the charming illustrations and stories about the three girls, 2 sisters and a cousin. I have the series at home — A Little Shopping might be appropriate as you are planning on decorating the doll house. Don’t know which age to recommend this series — 1st grade? Let me know what you think..
Thanks for the info, Mom! I’ll check them out at the library.
I love these books too! It’s nice to have some books that both of my kids (2 and 4 years) and I really enjoy. Sometimes I wish I lived in Poppleton’s little town. We’re slowly collecting the Poppleton books, as borrowing them from the library is no longer enough for us.
