There are few words that melt my heart faster than, "Mommy, I made..." (Of course, "I love you Mommy" is right up there). This book has been on our bookshelf for quite a few months, but apparently, it is on his mind more often than I realized.
The chameleon on the right was made during a nighttime lego session and the orange and white one came about in the morning hours because the yellow one needed a friend (you'll have to read the book...). Sometimes, I wonder if I am doing enough directed teaching, and then, I recall Jim Trelease's book, and handmade lego animals show up on my nightstand, and I worry no more.
