The Little One's second birthday is coming up, and as he gets older, he is able to understand and get excited about more and more complex stories.  I was delighted to find a basically new copy of Llama Llama, Red Pajama  while I was out thrifting the other day and even happier that it is now one of Noah's favorite books.  

Noah love the rhyme scheme and the funny voices that I make- and I personally love that it is a book that talks about the young central figure feeling nervous after going to bed and wondering, "What if Mama Llama's...GONE?"  And the mom's response that, "Mama Llama's always near, even when she's not right here." 

I'm hoping that eventually this will sink in to Noah's brain and help ease the tears that seem to happen every night when he wakes up (which is pretty much every night.)  I can't hope that I'll be just as lucky when I am looking for the others in the series, but I am so glad that I found out that this book has actually been worth the hype.
