Ila’s Favorites

Ila’s current favorite book is “A Sick Day for Amos McGee.”  She calls it “Elephant.”  She likes the page of the story where Amos is having breakfast and wearing socks and she likes thet page where he’s walking down the street.  She likes to find the bus and the Elephant and the balloon on many of the other pages.  One of her current favorite parts of the book is at the end where the “elephant is sleeping.” 

Her current favorite movie is “Ponyo.”  She has been asking for it every day and when I turn it on she claps and cheers and yells “honyo!”  It’s a basically about a fish who turns into a little girl and a 5 year old boy who loves her.

She also really likes “Despicable Me” which is perhaps an odd choice for a one-year-old.
