Top Five Fridays - Audrey Wood

I was first introduced to Audrey Wood during my babysitting years. Her books were often found on the bookshelves of the kids I used to watch and it was love at first read for me. These books are also a favorite of my two, especially my youngest and so I'm featuring Audrey Wood on my youngest’s read picks week for Top Five Friday. These books are a family affair as her books are illustrated by either herself, her husband, Don or her son, Bruce. What a talented family.

Here's my top five Audrey Wood books:





1. Piggies








2. Napping House







3. Alphabet Adventure







4. Ten Little Fish






5. The Deep Blue Sea



I can't wait to read her latest book due to come out soon, Piggy Pie Po.


Which 'five' Audrey Wood's books make your list?

    We love Piggies. Don Wood is also an excellent artist. One of our favorite books is King Bidgood's in the Bathtub and He Won't Get Out!

    Loved the Napping House! It made it to our permanent book collection and has stayed there as the kids have gotten older.

    I wasn't sure I was familiar with Audrey Wood until I ready the comments & we love the one about the Little Mouse, the Red Ripe Strawberry & the Hungry Bear! I will have to seek out more of her books!
