This week's theme: Books With an Adjective in the Title.
I decided to go with some of my favorite picture books this week, because they tend to have the best adjectives.
The Steadfast Tin Soldier
The Twelve Dancing Princesses
Creepy Carrots
The Little Mouse, the Red Ripe Strawberry and the Big Hungry Bear
The Dragon and the Nibblesome Knight
Nerdy Birdy Tweets
My Big Bad Monster
The Blue Songbird
Cyrus the Unsinkable Sea Serpent
Alexander and the Terrible, Horrible, No Good, Very Bad Day
Happy Reading!
So many new to me kids books I'm curious about. Of course I've always loved: Alexander and the Terrible, Horrible, No Good, Very Bad Day. great list
ReplyDeleteCan't have a list of books with adjectives in the title without that one! :D
DeletePerfect!
ReplyDeleteI went with kids' books, too.
Your TTT list is great. I can't believe how many books you found with little and big in the titles!
DeleteHow fun! ALEXANDER was the first book that came to mind when I saw today's prompt. I also love "steadfast" and "creepy" - those are great adjectives.
ReplyDeleteHappy TTT!
And Creepy Carrots is the best picture book. :D
DeleteChildren's books do have the best adjectives, calculated to draw kids in. You've mentioned some really good ones.
ReplyDeleteI had fun with this week's list. :D
DeleteLove this! I have read some of those books, and I love them. I will have to add to the rest to my library holds so I can read them with my kids.
ReplyDeleteThere are so many fun picture books out there! I still like reading them. :)
DeleteCreepy Carrots looks like such a fun book.
ReplyDeleteIt's so awesome! I used to read it to the kids at my school and they always love it.
DeleteYou picked some great adjectives. I especially like Alexander's.
ReplyDeleteI had to include that book...it's like the epitome of a book with adjectives in the title. :)
DeleteGreat take on the topic! You are so right, kid's books have way more adjectives. :)
ReplyDeleteMy TTT post
I had to do a list where I could use Creepy Carrots...so that's why I went with all picture books. ;D
DeleteI never read Twelve Dancing Princesses but I love the cover of it! And Alexander's No Good... has many adjective, clever!
ReplyDeleteThanks! I loved the books you chose for your TTT list. So many of them are books I really want to read. :D
DeleteThese are so fun! :D
ReplyDeleteThanks, Ashley!
DeleteI love this topic! Picture books are so good and I'm loving finding new ones everyday with my son's love for reading. :)
ReplyDeleteMy Top Ten!
There are so many good ones out there to read, too. :D
DeleteLovely! Kids' book titles really are the best! I love the creepy carrots and the unsinkable sea serpent -- those are definitely new to me!
ReplyDeleteCreepy Carrots is a new favorite of mine, and Bill Peet's books have been favorites since I was just a kid. :)
DeleteWe LOVE The Little Mouse book! It is one I read a million times to my kiddos and my foster kiddos! Great post, Lark :)
ReplyDeleteI love that book, too. I never get tired of reading it! :D
DeleteThe twelve Dancing Princesses looks like a neat one. Aww and the sea serpent one too! :)
ReplyDeleteBill Peet's books are so great! I love them. And The Twelve Dancing Princesses is one of my favorite fairy tales. :)
DeleteLoved how you focused on picture books this week. You've got some great ones here. :)
ReplyDeleteThey have the best adjectives in their titles. :)
DeleteThese are so adorable! I love picture books.
ReplyDeleteI love picture books, too!
DeleteNerdy, Birdy Tweets. LOL!!!!
ReplyDeleteIsn't that one funny? I couldn't resist adding it to my list. :)
DeleteOooooh, I love your list of adjectives, I mean the books, of course. So sweet! Unfortunately, I am not that up-to-date with children's books but I always loved them.
ReplyDeleteThanks for visiting my good, bad, and ugly TTT this week.
I worked in an elementary school library a few years ago, which helped keep me a little up to date with the new picture books. Not so much any more though. :)
DeleteI always worked with books while my kids were at school, library, book sales, reading with them, and, of course, reading with my kids. But my youngest left school about 10 years ago, so I haven't had much information since then.
DeleteLife keeps changing on us, doesn't it?
DeleteIt does. Sometimes for the better, sometimes for the not so good but we keep on going. And books certainly help us with that.
DeleteGreat list! And I love the covers too! So cute! :)
ReplyDeleteThanks! I had fun picking them out. :D
DeleteThese all look so much fun and you’re right, picture books do have the best adjectives! (Also creepy carrots? I love that title!)
ReplyDeleteIt's a great picture book! Definitely one of my favorites. :)
DeleteThere are a few of my favourites on your list!
ReplyDeleteWhich ones? :D
DeleteI'm always looking for a good picture book for my grandkids. I'll keep this list in mind!
ReplyDeleteYou can't go wrong with Creepy Carrots in my opinion. :D
DeleteWhat a great list Lark. I have read most of these books but not all. I love the title and cover of The Dragon and the Nibblesome Knight. I will have to see if my library has it!
ReplyDeleteDoesn't that one look cute? I love the title! :)
