Something you may still want to read as an adult

This was the first book I ever learned to read as a child. My second book was Cordoroy. Starting with these two, I have been an avid reader all my life. My parents made sure I learned to read with fun, fabulous books. They did a good job....and so did Syd Hoff....now I share Albert with my 4 year-old son. He has already memorized Albert's adventure. What a treasure to pass through generations!
