I'm going to look for the others but 7 Ate 9 was one of my (then) 4 year old's favourite books, and still enjoyed now. I'm sure a lot of it goes over his head but I enjoy the puns! Have you read the other book where the capital letters go missing?
This is a very inspiring post—thank you for laying this out so thoughtfully and for challenging us to think critically with our kids! Love the recs for the littler guys and will be looking for them at the library. I’m just starting to see some of these sorts of thoughts and conversations emerge with my four year old, so these will be fun to explore together!
Love these recs and ways we can support critical thinking from early on.
Thank you!

It’s on my hold list! But the puns are just chef’s kiss in 7 ate 9. I also love the noir-esque look and feel to them.
Thank you so much for this! Ordering a couple asap
Hope you enjoy them as much as we did!
I loved this post! I have a 3.5 year old and this is already something we are trying to explore with her, these resources are so helpful!
Yay! Glad to be of service 🫡

That should make for some fun and interesting conversations! My daughter will sometimes make an observation that totally awes me in its simplicity.
Great recommendations and also honestly, a helpful reminder to myself to think more critically!
It was a great reminder to me too as I was writing this too! So glad you found this helpful.
Requesting these from the library now!
Yay! Let me know what you think!
