Pants!

Since I very rarely read books that take longer than 7 minutes cover to cover, I thought I'd just share one of our new favorite Children's Books. It's entitled "Pants", written by Giles Andreae and Nick Sharratt. It's actually a funny book about underpants, or *not* wearing pants. (which fits the title of my blog quite well, I must say) Our home is full of silliness and this book only adds to the goof. Do you think it's as funny as we do? You be the judge:

"Small pants, big pants
Giant frilly pig pants.
New pants, blue pants one, two, three
Rich pants, poor pants,
Swinging on the door pants.
How many more pants can you see?
Groovy pants, funky pants
Cheeky little monkey pants,
pants you can wear if you're ten feet tall!
Loose pants, tight pants
Lighting up at night pants.
Black pants, white pants
NO PANTS AT ALL!
Pants to pick a daisy, pants for being lazy
Pants on your head when you've gone crazy!
Funny pants, money pants
Wear them when it's sunny pants.
Wear them when you're happy pants
Little baby nappy pants.
Special pants for driving in the car!
Fairy pants, hairy pants
Run away from scary pants!
What a lot of lovely pants there are."

I got it out of the library at your insistence. Very funny. No pants at all is our fav part. The artwork is amusing too!

Pictures! I need pictures! And we're definitely a pants-free household, so I think my kids (especially Annie, who I find spread-eagle and panty-free most nights when I go in to cover her up) would find it hilarious.
