Chloe and the Lion by Marc Barnett and Adam Rex

First off, I love Adam Rex's style. And this whole book concept is brilliant. You can see from the cover that both author, Marc, and illustrator, Adam, have roles to play. In the grand style of Mo Willems' pigeon and so many other recent children's authors, the reader is front and center in the book, being told things from their points of view. My kids go gaga for this!

If you want a book that is fun to read aloud AND will make your child grab the book out of your hands the minute you're done so they can read it AGAIN to themselves, well -here is a great one.
