Mommy Calls Me Monkeypants

Tommy absolutely loves this book. Mommy Calls Me Monkeypants is a wonderful boardbook by J.D. Lester. Lester provides a great and well rhymed story. The book looks at many of the often silly nicknames given to children. Tommy has my wife and I reading this over and over all of the time. He is always pointing at the playful pictures of the different animals. Hiroe Nikata uses watercolors to create the bright and cute pictures. The two worked together on their most recent book called Daddy Calls Me Doodlebug. This is the same idea with nicknames but, ones that daddy would give. This is set to be released on April 27th 2010. But, somehow you can already preorder it on Amazon.
