For the Love of Books

I love that my guy is currently into this series.



I'm currently into, perhaps, my all-time favorite children's book, I Like You by Sandol Stoddard Warburg. It's the perfect little gift for that special someone in your life.



"... On the Fourth of July
I like you because
It's the Fourth of July

On the Fifth of July
I like you too

If you and I had some drums
And some horns and some horses

If we had some hats and some
Flags and some fire engines

We could be a HOLIDAY
We could be a CELEBRATION

We could be a WHOLE PARADE
See what I mean?

Even if it was the
nine hundred and ninety -
ninth of July

Even if it was August

Even if it was way down at the bottom of November
Even if it was no particular place in January

I would go on choosing you
And you would
go on choosing me
Over and over again

That's how it would happen every time."
