Our new favorite book is Llama Llama Mad at Mama, by Anna Dewdney. My mom recently introduced us to this book and its counterpart, Llama Llama Red Pajama. In each of these books, the little llama throws some sort of fit and gets a stern talking-to from his llama mama and then a tender reminder that his llama mama loves him so much and is always there for him. The whole book is told in rhymes, but they aren't cliche rhymes. The illustrations are cute and well done, and I love the way the little llama's ears show his expressions like a person's eyebrows tend to do.
I highly recommend these books. Ashlinn and I have read them several times each day since we acquired them last weekend, and I foresee us continuing to read them frequently in the future. Ashlinn has already memorized many of the lines, so I let her help me read them, and it's really cute hearing her say them.
If you have little kids at home, you should check them out!
