tongue twisters

Lately, we've gotten into this bedtime routine of lots of books. There are certain ones that are favorites for Gabriel, it seems that we read them every night. The books that top the list are: Pizza Pat, Are You My Mother?, A Fly Went By, and Fox in Socks. See what I mean? Lots of rhythm and rhyme. I'm enjoying it, though. It's fun and a challenge sometimes.

"These are the sausages, spicy and choppy, that sat on the sauce, all gooey and gloppy, that covered the dough, all stretchy and floppy, that lay in the tray that Pat bought."
Pizza Pat by Rita Golden Gelman

Bedtime is fun. I love tongue twisters.
