    We read Willems' That is NOT a Good Idea recently, too. I had a total "OH! I get it!" moment at the end of that book that I probably should have seen coming ;) But that's what makes it so classic Willems, right?

      I didn't see it either. Oddly enough, I haven't read any Mo Willems books before. Seen them around, but not read them. I now know that I should.

      That's how I feel whenever I find a children's book I want to read on these memes. Hope you enjoy!

      I didn't know there was an Eric Carle museum, but now that I do I'll have to go there if I'm ever in the MA area again.

      I'd be interested to see what you think. Often I see books around the blogosphere before I try them, but not this one.
