Nugget's Notes

The little Nugget has a new favorite read...

Mickey Meets the Giant

Publication Date: 1985
Pictorial hardcover. A Giant has put a boulder in the way so that no one can leave the town. Mickey decides to defeat the giant. He uses his brain to make the Giant undo all the wrong he has done. He throws a stone and the Giant says that is easy, so Mickey asks if he can throw that big boulder? The Giant throws the boulder away, and people can leave the town now.

My mommy found this book at a yard sale last summer. I LOVE the pencil illustrations throughout this book. I'm starting to "read" books to myself in my quiet time. I love to climb into my chair and "read" this book aloud to Mr. Bear. He loves this book too. I think my little brother will like this book when he can read too. My mommy thinks it's cute that I'm reading books to myself now. I think she is proud of me...

I love this new book that Mommy is reading to me! It's about a bear who travels to new and beautiful places and sees so many fun things. My favorite part is when Bear is in a rocket ship. I show Mommy where the moon and stars are on the page. This is my favorite part because a rocket ship is kind of like an airplane and airplanes are my absolute favorite! I think my Daddy likes airplanes too, he always talks about them with me and points them out in the sky. Although, today I spotted one before Daddy did! I think he really liked that...anyway, it's past my bedtime and I'm sleepy...night night!

I love this book! Cats are probably my favorite animal right now. In fact, we have two cats running around our house. I love to chase them and make them run fast. I've tried to snuggle with them and pull their tales but they don't seem to like that?? I'll wear them down soon...

My favorite part of this book is when Cleo comes home and meets her new friend Caspar...I wonder what they'll do next...I have to run - I really have a packed schedule today of eating, sleeping, playing and pooping!
