Caps! Caps for sale!

I've mentioned before how much Neal loves to read books, and that is why I have another post about reading with him.   I am so happy that some of his favorite books are ones that I remember from when I was little.  We sit together everyday and read at least 4 or 5 books in a row.  We have read his favorite ones so much that he can even "read" them to himself now.



The stories have even made it into his playtime.  The other day he picked up his bean bags, stacked them on his head and starting quoting the book "Caps for Sale" by yelling, "Caps! Caps for sale! Fifty cents a cap!"



I often find Neal quoting lines from books.  The other day when he woke up from his nap he told "I sleep long time, like Caps story".   He got that line from "Caps for Sale" where the peddler takes a nap and sleeps "...for a long time."


I think it's time for us to visit and library, Neal would love all the books there and it quite possibly could become one of his favorite places.
