My favorite class in college was Children’s Literature. I grew up loving to read, but taking that class sealed the deal for me and even before our kids were born I’d collected a huge stash of children’s books. When we had a few extra dollars, Jared (my studdly English major) and I used to take breaks from our homework to go to the local thrift store and browse the books. He often came away with 2-3 classic novels, and I came away with a stack of picture books.
My enthusiasm must have rubbed off as the book section is the first place my kids want to search when we go thrifting. We’ve built quite a collection!
Tomorrow I’ll share some tips and suggestions on what to add when building a children’s book collection, but for now, an Etsy print I’m LOVING.
Have a great Tuesday!

I’ve gotta say Pam I love that your books are organized by color!

@Dani, Ha. I’m a weirdo. But I have to admit, I love them that way too! I’m so visual.

LOL – I agree..not much more! And our house proves it! We have books stacked on books stacked on furniture, as furniture, everywhere we turn!
