Where's the hippo?

For Christmas, Jeneric and Toddler Wily received the fantastic book, Hidden Hippo (thank you!). This is Toddler Wily's favorite book - we read it at least once a day. We caught her on video helping Jenni read the book and find those hidden hippos.

Children's books

In light of the wave of births occurring around the Wily Jeneric family and since Toddler Jeneric and Baby Wily are such a bibliophiles, we thought we'd take a moment to educate those with kids (or soon to have kids) about the current literary fiction available for the under-3 crowd. Here we present a quick rundown of a few Wily Jeneric favorites.

Rainbow Fish       
Modern parable about sharing    or    How to manual for bribery and rampant consumerism?
