Overview

This was a fun idea that spawned last year between a friend, Lyn, & I while discussing picture books. It was such a wonderful and rewarding idea that I thought I'd bring it back again this year. There aren't any specific books to read for this challenge though I do encourage folks to diversify their reading as much as possible. There are so many great picture books out there that we adults can learn from as well.
