Fancy Nancy and Priscilla

Just finished bedtime stories with Megan (naughty Jacob was already in bed) and just had to share these two favorites of ours. Fancy Nancy by Jane O'Connor and Robin Preiss-Glasser (Neill Library has 7 different Fancy Nancy books.)

There are several Fancy Nancy books in hardback and now many more new ones in paperback that are easy readers. I just peeked at the website (http://www.fancynancybooks.com/) and the release dates are posted. There's also a couple sticker books too.

I would happily read these books to Megan every night if she asked me to. They are very well written and the illustrations are fabulous. If you have a little girl in your life, these are perfect!Priscilla and the Pink Planet by Jocelyn Hobbie (Neill Library has 4 of these books.)

This is a newer series to me but I've already fallen in love with them. Similar to the Fancy Nancy books, the author and illustrator are amazing!

There's also Priscilla and the Pink Planet, Priscilla Superstar, Priscilla and the Splish-Splash Surprise and Priscilla and the Great Santa Search.

There's one other book I'm dying to share but it's an Easter one and I'm going to wait at least until March. It's my all time favorite holiday book and you'll want to check this one out!

This Thursday, Feb. 26th! :)

1) Kindergartners are off this week in Pullman Public Schools due to conferences. Please let Claire know if you would like to bring your sweet Kinder with you to PS.
2) Clean-up -- we no longer have to put the tables away as the new custodian at SUMC would like to do this. The request is that we continue to set up chairs as we have in the past, and simply move the tables back towards the office (don't put legs down, he'll do that too).
3) For all of you participating in the blood drive this Tuesday running from 1:00-5:45, thanks! There are 3 more slots available for donating if you, your significant other, a friend, etc. are interested (note: child care is available).
See you Thursday,
Lisa

Lori found this article online. I thought it had some practical suggestions to take what we've learned from Dr. Hunt and apply it in our kitchen:)
