Thanks for the reminder. I finally posted my book meme answers.<BR/>JoneJonehttp://maclibrary.libblogs.net/noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-21301089.post-1155525612448435542006-08-13T23:20:00.000-04:002006-08-13T23:20:00.000-04:00I think Winnie the Pooh is the best read-aloud book I've ever encountered. I'd read the stories myself, but I started reading them to my son--I don't know how old he was, but way past the Disney Winnie-the-Pooh stage (which he was never that into). We still, occasionally, pull it out--and he's 10. I'm pretty sure he curled up with it himself just last year. The books are incredibly clever and funny.<BR/><BR/>Side note--there are two incredible audio books of the Pooh stories out there. (ISBN# 1859986501 & 1840320028, Judi Dench is one of the narrators.) When you listen to it, you just GET that the Monty Python cast grew up on Winnie the Pooh. The scene where Pooh is looking for Rabbit, and Rabbit doesn't want Pooh to know he's there (the one that ends up with Pooh getting stuck in Rabbit's door)--is pure Monty Python. "Is that Rabbit?" "No, I don't think so." "It sounds like Rabbit." "No, no, not Rabbit!"
