I think we all remember this book!  Rose Red and I have taken to reciting September's poem each day we look at our calendar.

September

In September

for a while

I will ride

a crocodile

down the

chicken soupy Nile.

Paddle once

paddle twice

paddle chicken soup

with rice.

~ Maurice Sendak (Chicken Soup with Rice:  A Book of Months)

We'll be using this sweet little book of prayers to help us learn our days of the week this year.  I always love Cynthia Rylant picture books.

"Monday make me good and kind to all creatures that I find.  Help me love God's whole creation.  Make my life a celebration . . . "  ~  from Give Me Grace by Cynthia Rylant
