The book affair has begun

I have noticed in the past couple weeks that she has become enamored with books. She makes people read to her and chants "Rea, Rea" often. I can tell her to go pick out a book and she quickly runs over to her basket and brings over the animal book. She gets overly giddy when we look happen upon a dog or turtle. She repeats "turtle" over and over.

I know the older kids enjoy this because they bring it to my attention when they find her flipping through a book in the corner.  Rose commented just today how cute she looked squatted over her favorite read "My favorite PETS."
