The invite for my friend Laura's baby shower. We are asking everyone to bring their favorite children's book for the new baby, so I went the with Little Golden Books angle. We kept squealing with delight when we were assembling them.
Cute for the non-lovers of cute.
regularjoe, Aggtastic, and 10 other people added this photo to their favorites.

My favorite was called "The Secret Kitten" about two kids who get a free kitten from the storekeeper down the street and hide it in their closet because their mom is allergic. I still have it, too.

We have this book. Heehee. I'm pretty sure you violated some copyright on this one... :-) Such a cool invite!

probably but they are totally out of print, so aren't we edging into public domain at this point? and we only made 20, so you know...it's like cover songs.

That's precious! I'd say my favorites were The Monster at the End of this Book and Corduroy.

This is adorable! I'm planning a children's book theme shower for a friend and she came across yours and sent me the link. I would love to know how you did this to see if maybe I can do something similar for her. Would you mind sharing some tips with me?
