Now with the riches of multiple libraries now available to us, choosing new stories is a highlight of every week. Of course books along the lines of "Old truck, new truck, red truck, blue truck,"
abound--read ad infinitum, ad nausem to delight the souls of little boys. But we've also collected quite a list that Mother and Zadok equally enjoy. So, in no particular order, here's some of our favorites from the past year that you can look for in your own libraries.
