Read All About it-Children's Book Corner-Corduroy

One of my childhood favorites is the loving tale of Corduroy. It was quite surreal when I had the opportunity to have lunch with Roy Freeman, author Don Freeman's son and the inspiration of Corduroy. Roy was lovely and talented in his own right and also a fan of the book.

Corduroy was read to me and my brothers by our mother many moons ago, yet the adventures of little Corduroy remain entertaining. We found this sweet natured teddy bear adorable and endearing. We would worry about Corduroy in the department store with the lights out looking for his button. This book is a true joy and a great story for children. Today, my nieces and nephew enjoy the story of Corduroy and I bet your little ones will too. Enjoy and Play Nice.

Children's Book Corner-Scooby Doo and the Camping Caper

BKLYN Yard: Who do you like reading the book to you?
"Miss May": Mama because I like her to all days.

BKLYN Yard: Anything else you'd like to share about the book?
"Miss May": I love Aunt Nicole. (awwww-melt)

And according to "Miss May's" hip mommy the little girl lovvves all things Scooby Do and the little one insists on having Scooby Doo bed sheets. When playing with friends she play's Scooby Doo and always wants to be Daphne. Her mom says "I guess things follow generations. One of my aunts told me whenever Scooby came on I'd run to the tv singing the theme song." Like mother like daughter. So for all you Scooby fans out there check it out and Play Nice
