Happy Tuesday everyone! Welcome to the Top Ten Tuesday now hosted by That Artsy Reader Girl. This week's topic is Books I Wish I Had Read As a Child. I'm focusing on picture books that I wish I was able to experience for he first time when I was little, instead now as an adult. Now doubt about it, though, these are all delightful. Here we go, in alphabetical order by title:
Dragons Love Tacos by Adam Rubin
Grace for President by Kelly DiPucchio
A Hundred Billion Trillion Stars by Seth Fishman
Magritte's Marvelous Hat by D.B. Johnson
Pete the Cat: I Love My White Shoes by Eric Litwin and James Dean
Rosie Revere, Engineer by Andrea Beaty
She Persisted by Chelsea Clinton
They All Saw A Cat by Brendan Wenzel
Those Darn Squirrels! by Adam Rubin
Waiting by Kevin Henkes
Have you read any of these picture books? What are some of your favorite picture books? As always, thanks for visiting my blog and perhaps even commenting down below!
Aaaw these all look so cute!
ReplyDeleteDarn cute!
DeleteMy kids are 30 and 25, so they've outgrown children's books for ages, maybe that's why I don't know those books. But they look fantastic.
ReplyDeleteI did a similar topic last year and therefore have linked to the one I did then ( Top Ten Books I wish I read as a kid). My TTT today is an old one I missed (Books I'll Never Read).
Since I work in a library I see a lot of great new picture books. :)
DeleteThanks for sharing, Marianne.
I used to work in the school library when my kids were young. And organized our book fair (together with a great friend). So, I used to see many of them, as well. Not any more. But it's nice to see them online like here.
DeleteGreat list! She Persisted looks so lovely.
ReplyDeleteYes, it's very timely. :)
DeleteGreat list.

Thanks, Rue!
DeleteAw, fun choices. Normally I wouldn't have any reason to know any of these, but Eric Christian Olsen read Dragons Love Tacos & Rosie Revere on his Instagram recently, and now they are permanently stamped with a Delightful sticker in my memory.
ReplyDeleteOh, that would be so much fun to see! I'll have to look that up.
DeleteI thought maybe there would be a few I read with my daughter, when she was small, but there are not. I am glad there are books about women engineers for small children. It's good to expose them to the fact that women can do any job they want.
ReplyDeleteOh, yes. I especially loved the parallels and references to Rosie the Riveter.
DeleteI honestly do not remember reading picture books, but I must have, right? I haven't read any of these but they all look like fun😁
ReplyDeleteYou must have... and yes, they are very fun.
DeleteAll of these look great.
ReplyDeleteThey are awesome.
DeleteYes, these all look like fun reads!
ReplyDeleteMy TTT .
Very much so, Lydia. Thanks for sharing.
DeleteDragons love tacos sounds awesome! And my little brother loved Pete the cat <3
ReplyDeleteThey're both so much fun.
DeleteAll of these look so fun! I wouldn't have minded reading them as a child either.
ReplyDeleteIf only...
DeletePete The Cat is great. I want to read all of these picture books, even though I'm not a kiddo! They look so cute! 😄 Here's my Top Ten Tuesday List!
ReplyDeleteThey're so worth it!
DeleteThanks for sharing. :)
I don't read picture books these days but once I'll have a baby I'm sure I'll come across some great ones. These look cute!

I don't blame you there. Thanks for visiting, Sherry.
DeleteAw, some cute ones here! I do love picture books, but yeah, I can't remember many from my actual childhood. I think they've gotten better as the years go on!

They at least seem more memorable now don't they. :)
DeleteYou picked some of my FAVORITE current children’s books! I recently read Dragons Love Tacos for a storytime. I also love A Hundred Billion Trillion Stars, Pete the Cat, and Rosie Revere!
ReplyDeleteThey're just so great! I bet Dragons Love Tacos would be perfect for a story time. :)
