Evidently, it is delicious in addition to being delightful.
One of their other favorites (Colin in particular loves it) is a book called Cat that they got at Easter. Seen below is the book (in pristine condition) on the day it was bestowed:
And here's Gillian reading it with Schmo shortly thereafter:
Alas, the intervening months have not been kind to the Cat book. Both Colin and Gillian are a little rough when reading the book, and well...
I just spent part of the evening trying to restore it. I'm sure it wouldn't meet the Big Bean's standards for art conservation, but I believe that my packing-tape repairs will probably be acceptable to C&G. They'll just tear it to shreds again. We have to get a new copy when they're a little older and maybe less prone to destroying their books.

Oh, funny! One of Rachel's favorite books...to read AND eat also...is Peek A Who! Cat looks like a Matthew Van Fleet? Is it? Those are great:) Rachel has Tails ny him and loves it. Has not tried to eat that one...yet:)...Lori & Rachel...
It's a well loved book! Grammy is so proud of both of her little "readers". Not only do they enjoy eating books, they also love to be read to from those books (and others in better condition)!
Wow - and I thought that Peak a Who was looking pretty bad a few weeks ago! It looks even more loved now: perhaps it will soon become real?
And yes, packing tape is frowned upon.
