The Gruffalo

I never paid much attention to The Gruffalo before Kiira fell in love with it.  Sure, I knew it was supposed to be a great kids book, but I was selfish.  If was always used in the classroom, would be a bit repetitive in the library so I couldn't use it, and if I couldn't use it I was going to pay more attention to the books I could use.  When I was looking through iTunes for a video to rent for Aidan I saw the Oscar nominated short film The Gruffalo.  I download it since the book is supposed to be good and Kiira has the entire story memorized - I should give it a try.

  Turns out to be the best book-to-movie adaptation I;ve ever seen as well as Aidan's new favorite movie and, GASP!, a book a really likes.
