Picking just five is tough; we've read and loved so many! My favs are probably different from what my kids would pick, but here goes:

Meanwhile, Back at the Ranch-Trinka Hakes Noble-hysterical...treat yourself to this one.

Applebet:An ABC-Clyde Watson

My Great Aunt Arizona-Gloria Houston

When I was Young in the Mountains-Cynthia Rylant

The Bee Tree-Patricia Polacco -All of her books are wonderful..

Many of our favorites are in the Five in a Row roster. Check out the books in this list. Do not miss Night of the Moon Jellies by Mark Saasha, A New Coat for Ann by Harriet Ziefert, or Stopping By Woods on a Snowy Evening illustrated by Susan Jeffers.

Thinking of it I absolutely don't remember a picture book from my childhood. I remember my grandma planting amazing stories and pictures in my head. She was a wonderful storyteller. I guess we didn't need pictue books at all.
