Challenge Wrap-Up: I Love Picture Books 2015

Many thanks to Gina @ Book Dragon's Lair for hosting the 2015 I Love Picture Books Reading Challenge. I do love picture books, and I loved this challenge. I set myself a goal of twelve books, and didn't have any trouble at all reaching that goal. Here's what I read:

1. Corduroy. Don Freeman. 1948 / 32 pages
2. The Little House. Virginia Lee Burton. 1942 / 40 pages / 1943 Caldecott Medal
3. Mike Mulligan and His Steam Shovel. Virginia Lee Burton. 1938 / 56 pages 
4. Katy and the Big Snow. Virginia Lee Burton. 1943 / 40 pages
5. A Camping Spree with Mr. Magee. Chris Van Dusen. 2003 / 36 pages
6. Stella and Charlie, Friends Forever. Bernadette Peters; illus. by Liz Murphy. 2015 / 40 pages
7. Little Bird, Be Quiet! Kirsten Hall; illus. by Sabina Gibson. 2015 / 36 pages
8. Anatole. Eve Titus; illus. by Paul Galdone. 1956 / 40 pages / 1957 Caldecott Honor Book
9. Harry the Dirty Dog. Gene Zion; illus. by Margaret Bloy Graham. 1956 / 32 pages
10. Harry and the Lady Next Door. Gene Zion; illus. by Margaret Bloy Graham. 1960 / 64 pages
11. One Morning in Maine. Robert McCloskey. 1952 / 62 pages / 1953 Caldecott Honor Book
12. The Bees (Down in the Garden #1). DC Swain; illus. by Anna Bonita. 2015 / 24 pages

For 2016, Gina has passed the challenge hosting duties over to Bea's Book Nook. Haven't signed up yet, but I'm very tempted -- there are still lots of picture books I'd love to read.
