Last night, Analise wanted to read me Eric Carle’s Brown Bear, Brown Bear<\/a>.\u00a0 She flipped right through it, word for word memorized, from the red bird to the black sheep.\u00a0 She was quite pleased with herself and happily took it to bed with her to read to her bed buddies (last night that was jingly penguin, Fairy Dora, and the big polar bear).<\/p>\n
