4. Oh, octopus, wrong leg
A beautiful little octopus, Giannos, also has, like all octopuses, eight legs... The strange thing is that each leg has a different profession. But what happens on the days when Giannos wakes up on the wrong side of the bed and mixes up his legs? One goes to the job of another, and thus many funny events happen...
This colorful, funny children's tale with the original illustrations immediately captured the interest of my boys. Not only did we laugh at the blunders of Giannos's legs, but we also learned that when we love someone, we accept them, even if they make some mistakes, and we handle those with humor and patience. Additionally, inspired by this tale, we talked about the eight professions that each of Giannos's legs does.
The most important thing, however, is that after closing this tale, we were left with a smile on our faces, in a good mood, and we kept repeating the phrase "Oh, octopus, wrong leg"!
Yannos the octopus, like all octopuses, has one, two, three, four, five, six, seven... eight legs! But sometimes... Yannos the octopus wakes up on the wrong side of the bed. He gets his eight legs all tangled up, and one gets in the way of the other!
5. Goodnight, we say
The Bear feels very tired and is eager to lie down in his bed... However, his friend the Duck still has a lot of energy and wants company... He constantly finds excuses to bother him and doesn't let him relax... When finally the Duck feels tired and decides to leave his friend alone, the Bear has stayed awake and can't close his eyes!
A very sweet, funny children's story that praises the value of friendship and patience. But also a story that teaches us that, even with our loved ones, we must set boundaries for our own good. Surely, most parents with young children will immediately take the Bear's side. They will understand the exhaustion and the great need for sleep and rest. At least that's how I felt, since the little ones don't easily fall asleep!
Goodnight, we say... It's time for sleep... Finally!
The Bear can't wait to go to sleep. However, the Duck is not sleepy and wants company! Who will convince whom in the end? And who will stay awake? The book was honored in 2015 with the E.B. White Read-Aloud award in the category of illustrated children's book by the American Booksellers Association.
I love children's books... That's why, I started reading baby books to my twin boys when they were just one year old. Now that they are five years old, every night before they go to bed, we choose three children's fairy tales... One I choose and one each of them! Of course, they don't read them; they just look at the pictures and say whatever they remember from my reading. Usually, my choice is one of the 6 best educational children's fairy tales. This is our time and the best opportunity to teach them things about life in the most enjoyable way.
Then, we read two more funny fairy tales and go to bed with a huge smile on our faces!
