Children is the broader term for infants, toddlers and tweens. These posts are about children of all ages.
I said with all the guttural force I could muster. My pants were around my ankles and I had just sat down on the toilet before running errands with a three and five year old. They were in the other room playing for a moment so I figured I had two minutes to spare. The phone rings. I get up, pants around my ankles to see who it is and I don’t recognize the phone number, so of course I answer it.

The Pout Pout Fish Goes to School is the fourth book in the series of a fish trying to find his way. Sometimes he’s a little grumpy or just doesn’t know what to make of these new situations. It reminds a little bit of I Am So Brave, except longer with most of the words rhyming and repeating. It’s also immediately catchy. It took me one reading of The Pout Pout Fish Goes to School to enjoy it and understand how and why it would be enjoyable to our children.
