What a fantastic giveaway! And thank you so much for mentioning Got Books?! It's going to be so much fun, make sure you check out all the fun giveaways. :o)
As for me and Eric Carle...hmmm...this is actually a tough question. If I was going to choose it would have to be Brown Bear Brown Bear What Do You See? And this decision is driven primarily because of my son's love of this book in particular. He reads it over and over. It's great!
Thank you again!

I LOVE Eric Carle books, but I have to say The Very Hungry Caterpillar has always been my favourite, because it is so good to read to Kindy children! sices@bigpond.com

Great giveaway! I'm a follower of your blog. Originally only through Bloglines but now via Google friends.
My daughter and I love the Karen Katz series. She asks for it every night as the 'baby' books. Toes, Ears and Nose is our fav.
Thanks again!

I also love Eric Carle books. I think my favorite has to be The Very Hungry Caterpillar. With all of the bright pictures and colors plus kids seem to really identify with the different foods, counting and days of the week. What fun!

I have two little seeds that are learning to read and would love to own this book. (email in blogger profile)
My daughter likes his book Pancakes, Pancakes!. The process of gathering ingredients to make a pancake intrigues her. I like that it teaches kids to appreciate where food comes from. (email in blogger profile)
We love Eric Carle. My family celebrated his birthday on June 25. My daughter ranked her top 11 Eric Carle Books. Tiny Seed was #3, #1 was Today is Monday.
