Maureen Wittman had a post on her blog about favorite read alouds, and I thought it would be fun to post our favorite read alouds.

I polled all my children and they each came up with their 3 favorite read alouds.  It’s funny to see theme’s emerge.  Gamer-boy’s favorite stories all feature a mouse, and Dino-boy seems to prefer non-fiction.
