Today I’m sharing another video review, of two picture books I’ve been enjoying reading to my baby: Roar of a Snore and Prancing, Dancing Lily, both by Marsha Diane Arnold. The first is a fun rhyming story of waking up a family one by one to find the source of a great and clamorous snore. The second follows a cow on her quest to find her own right dance.
The idea of “Roar of a Snore” reminds me of the kids’ song, “The Green Grass Grows” where it’s also a memory game – “the bird in the egg in the nest on the branch on the tree in the hole in the ground.” Looks very cute, and I like the twist ending.
Who doesn’t like a reading and writing cow? “Dancing Prancing Lily” has such a fanciful world, which is great for kids. Clever ending with the conga line to lead the cows. I thought, at first, she’d be Prince Harry, going his own way, but she ended up being Prince William and adapting her hereditary role to her own talents. 🙂
