It is very common, at least in our house, for mama to end up sick if either of the kids are. Books are always a favorite, regardless of health. The catch is staying awake and avoiding any headaches to enjoy the reading. No one is ever happy when they are sick, but company and something to do when exhaustion doesn't win are always good things.

As always, I love the rhythm of these books (none of them quite match the Ludacris version of "Llama Llama Red Pajama" but he hasn't gotten around to rapping the other titles yet). This book is realistic to me since it shows how quickly and HORRIBLY you can catch an illness from your own kid (traitor).

Llama Llama wakes up feeling sick so mama sends him back to bed and takes care of him. The book works with great rhymes and a loving mama. The illustrations in the book are realistic and show how loving his mama is. I give this book a 3 because it teaches a great lesson to the kids while talking about rhymes.

Llama Llama Home with Mama by Anna Dewdney is the fifth of the Llama Llama books and the first one I've read with my daughter.

It is great to be able to do take care of my kids and work on projects with them at home.The setting is great in a home and being able to spend time with momma, unfortunately the circumstances stink, but it is great. It is a good read for anytime. My youngest loves the books since I have started reading them to him. He has asked me to buy more.Toddler book...

This book had an intriguing plot, kept me on the edge of my seat!! It took me a few weeks to work my way through it, but well worth it.

Rhyming text never seems forced, and Dewdney's paintings are expressive and fun.

This is the latest installment of the Llama Llama series. Again, I am forced to read this book 3x in a row. This is my children's favorite series. I love the interaction between Mama Llama and Llama Llama. My kids seem to relate well to the stories because Llama Llama reminds them of themselves. We have read it so often that my kids say the ending word (so they help me rhyme). This author has done a really good job of telling cute story that entertains kids. I especially like towards the end whe...

The Llama Llama books are a WONDERFUL series for your very young readers up through preschool age. After preschool age, these are great books for your beginning reader to start to read out loud. The rhyming text and beautiful illustrations make this a fun book to read. And as a parent, I appreciate that Dewdney also includes a wonderful message and/or learning moment for your reader.This book has to be based on a true story and should have probably been labeled non-fiction and placed in the pare...

Llama Llama is sick at home with his mama and is being taken care of by his mama. Once he begins to feel better though his mama begins to feel sick and it is Llama's turn to take care of his mama. I thought this story was an entertaining way to talk about illness and what parents will do to take care of their children. This story is a good story to use to talk to kids about the importance of helping others feel better and overall just helping other people.

Another cute Llama Llama story. My daughter enjoyed looking at the pages and listening to the rhymes. This is a hardback book so had to be more careful than the board books.

These books are gold. My girls love them! We are used to the short simple "Llama Llamas", such as "Llama Llama Red Pajama" and "Llama Llama Nighty-Night", so we were pleasantly surprised when this book was lengthy and written in a story-telling fashion. What I loved about it: Its realistic depiction of sickness running through a household. I didn't know until I had my first child that sicknesses last a month because it passes from one person to another. When Mama gets sick in this story, I laugh...

This book was a perfect read for us this week! We have been fighting the cold so Kyleigh was really able to relate to the medication, sneezing and just plain old feeling crummy.She also loved they rhyming in the book. Her class at school has really been focusing on rhyming lately so she had fun coming up with other rhyming words as we read along. I really enjoy the Llama Llama series!
