Auntie Dessa gave Quincey a book for her birthday. It's a Richard Scary book called Cars, Trucks, and Things That Go with big pages and a bunch of busy pictures all over the pages. I remember when I would visit Jackson and read the kids books before bed and I always dreaded reading the Richard Scary books because they have like 40 pages and so much on all the pages. It just seemed to take forever until I figured out I could just read some of it. They are actually called "point and look books" because that's exactly what you're supposed to do. They are designed more for pointing and talking about things then actually reading the entire story.
Anyhow, Dessa got this book for Quincey and it didn't take long for it to become her favorite book. Gone are the days of simple books like Brown Bear Brown Bear What Do You See?
Literally, for a couple months now, Quincey totes this book all over the house and constantly brings it to our lap. There is this little gold bug hidden on each page named Goldbug and you're supposed to find him on the pages. Of course Quincey knows where goldbug is on every page. It's really quite incredible. I can't find him on half the pages but you flip to that page and she will immediately point him out. And, we have read the book so much that she knows where Mistress Mouse is, the Pig Family, Dingo Dog, and Officer Floosy on all the pages as well. She just absolutely loves this book! I had an idea to take a picture EVERY SINGLE TIME she brought the book and send it to Dessa so she could see the addiction she had caused but would be just too much :) It was a good idea though!
