If I ever can't find the girls, one of the first places I look is in Willa's room behind her rocking chair. It's to the point now where I will yell, "Where are you?" and Willa will yell back, "I'm reading!" and it's understood that she means she's behind her favorite chair. She goes there at least 10 times a day and sits by herself and reads out loud. In this pic Larkin is telling Willa all about what happens to Spot (and Larkin should know the plot because I swear she read this book 1,000 times when she was Willa's age!!). They really do read to each other back there and it is just the cutest thing to watch.
Willa's favorite book to read to herself is Peter Rabbit. Here's what she says while she flips through the book--
"Peter eat berries. Go garden. Oh no! Mista Greggor! Run Peter, run!! He get you! Hide!!" She is always so caught up in the book--if you didn't know she had a book in her hands you'd think that Mr. McGreggor was chasing Peter right through her bedroom! :)
