Why You’ll Love This Chicken And Rice Soup.When you wanna give something more than a book, but wouldn't lower yourself to buy a book and toy combo.

Not to mention, together, they almost always constitute the perfect gift. Though these books are available separately in slightly larger paperback versions, to me the sheer lack of size in this collection is what makes them especially endearing.

I've selected the haunting month for obvious reasons. The illustrations are imaginative (of course) and the rhyming is a gas to read out loud. The book is really about the months of the year with chicken soup being the thing that connects them all together. My boy has been obsessing over the wee little collection ever since the first viewing, and in particular, Chicken Soup with Rice. Within the special, the entire text of each Nutshell Library book is played out: Chicken Soup with Rice, Pierre, One was Johnny and Alligators All Around. Really Rosie was a TV special and musical based on The Nutshell Library and The Sign on Rosie's Door by Maurice Sendak with music by Carole King. That said, a few weeks ago, I found an LP copy of Really Rosie at a thrift shop, and then a few weeks later, I picked up the VHS of the movie. I think I have enough in stock here on the 'ole bookshelf, but if I get in a jam, I can always hit the library. So, my challenge for the rest of the month is to spotlight only books that are seasonal, Halloween or spooky-themed.
