Green Eggs & Ham

Posted August 20th, 2010 by Sally and filed in Firsts, Kiddos, Whoozy

At some point, Ava requested the book Green Eggs & Ham as her nightly read.  To be honest, I think maybe a babysitter read it the first time, but it’s been part of our nightly ritual for the last few weeks.  It started out that Matt or I would just read the book to her.  Then, she started wanting a turn when we were done.  Now, Whoozy “reads”  to us first, and then it’s Mommy or Daddy’s turn to read.

Ava’s recitation of the book is pretty good and has actually gotten better since this video was shot.  Generally, she has the right topic on the right page, even though she doesn’t read it verbatim.  I think, though, that my favorite part of her “reading” is the inflection she uses to tell the story.  Let’s just say she’d make a pretty good parrot, if she were looking to change species.
