Chicks and Salsa

I love it when a book captures my kids and it becomes a part of our collection of favorites. This past fall the book that has captured all of our children (6, 3 & 2) is the book Chicks and Salsa by Aaron Reynolds and illustrated by Paulette Bogan.

It's pretty hillarious, with a fun tone and candence as well as enjoyable artwork. In the spirit of books like Click, Clack, Moo by Doreen Cronin, the barnyard animals are up to their own unnatural mischief, in this case cooking with a Mexican flare. The artwork has little "bonus material" that goes beyond the text. The text references some mystery (such as were did the chips come from?) and the pictures reveal some additional detail that is fun to see the kids discover.

Highly recommended - probably our favorite new book of 2014.

Love is not to say that the term is a combination of verbs include what someone will do. In this world, the so-called love is akin to going there a lot, but real love is not easy to find.

Something not too good. Attention, too. When selfish, overly concerned, it would not be love again. It will make people in the tired, just want to let go because they have the feeling of being controlled anytime, anywhere.
