  • The Little Red Hen
    The Little Red Hen
    Hooray for a good work ethic! The little red hen asks but receives no help in her efforts to put bread on the table. Yet all who wouldn't help would like to eat. In a refreshingly old-fashioned triumph of moral consequences, they don't get to!
  • Noisy Nora
    Noisy Nora
    Poor Nora! The loveable mousette experiences all the pangs of the child-in-the- middle, caught between the demands of baby brother and bossiness of big sister. Catchy meter, playful illustrations make for a wonderfully satisfying mouse's tale. Baby-Preschool

Since they lost all their furniture in a fire, they've been saving mother’s tips in a jar – so they can buy a big comfortable chair for their whole family to enjoy – daughter, mother and grandmother.

Taylor Mali: Totally, like whatever, you know?

Thanks to Molly for sending me this from First Things:

Here's a transcript of Totally like whatever, you know? by Taylor Mali

And Taylor Mali performing:

This is a good one to share with your teens - and a reminder to raise the bar on our own speech to set the best example. I for one hate hearing people who are supposed to be our best and brightest addressing groups as "you guys" - for example.

Love,

I love this Momma!!!!

I get so frustrated trying to decipher what people are trying to really say now days. All the round about ways they ramble before stating what maybe, sort of, kind of...they believe in.....you know??? Like...you know what I'm saying?????

Ludicrous!

I found it interesting how a commentator on First Things referred to this as a "speaking disease". My 11 year old daughter even said that it spreads like a disease!
