Alright mommies, daddies, aunts, uncles, grandmas, grandpas, nanas, and papas, or anyone who has a child they love to read to, this book is one of Ava's favorites.
"Stand up!" "No, I changed my mind, sit down." These are some of the first lines in Can You Make a Scary Face. This is an interactive book, so it is especially great for kids who can follow directions (I would say around 2 and up). Ava loves pretending she has a bug on her nose and has to wiggle it off, she loves to do the pretend that bug has flown in her mouth, and even more, she loves to make a scary face and growl. Her face is more smiles than truly scary, but it's so cute when she acts out the book. I love that it is simple and fun and that Jim will act out the book too, which makes for a really funny video and great blackmailing. Yes, my husband will do the chicken dance to get the bug out of his shirt, but I think he would let Ava paint his toenails pink if she wanted to; she has him so wrapped around her little finger.
We don't own this book, so I have to check it out from the library nearly every time we go. In fact, we read it so often that she has the book nearly memorized and can say it anytime she wants. Maybe I should just buck up and buy the book (because we don't have enough strewn throughout our house). Now go make a scary face... "Aaaaah Not that scary!"
