"Jack, from the backseat, said to his Dad...



...this car is OK. This car is not bad. But it's just a car. Nothing great. Nothing grand. It's nothing at all like the car I have planned."
Recently, my father bought a book for my boys. It has become one of my favorite books EVER! The book is, If I Built a Car, by Chris Van Dusen. I am in complete awe of the incredibly colorful pictures that fill this book. You also get a little taste of the 50's era with the clothes, the hair, the food, the houses. The rhyming flows off the tongue, and I find it so clever and fun to read. It is one of those books that I can actually read every night and not get sick of it... so far!
