Richard Scarry Fans




Buby loves author Richard Scarry. Something about his illustrations. We don't have many of his titles, but this "Biggest Word Book Ever!" from Random House is a fave! We picked it up at a town-wide garage sale last year for only $3 {in lieu of the $40 list price}, and Buby pulls it out at least once a day to talk to me about such whimsical things as bananamobiles, pickle or corn cars, and Harry Pig's paint easel. I totally recommend it, because it's as humongo as your child's imagination and you two can lay on the floor and talk about all the things crammed into each page for hours.

I am a HUGE Richard Scarry fan! (Remember...I Ebayed quite extensively for some of his vintage books...) I'm sure the girls will share my passion in a few years..

I grew up reading Richard Scarry books. My brother loved finding Goldbug and that Dingo Dog. We have a few here and my Mom still has our old ones at her house.

I never got into those books as a kid, but that's no reason to deprive Reagan.
