My Favorite Things illustrated by Renee Graef

My Favorite Things is a visual representation of the classic song from Roger & Hammerstein's Sound of Music. Perhaps I'm feeling a bit sentimental today but this song has always been a favorite (I can remember belting it out as a child) and the images in this book (no specific reference to the Sound of Music) call to the childlike joy of the song. My daughter also knew and loved the song long before we had the book so it was great to reintroduce the song in a new format. This book is definitely mind candy but sometimes we all need that extra rush of sugar. 32 pages.
