Mr. Magee, My Daddy & Me

A special time of the day in our home is when stinky boys have been showered, teeth have been brushed and dirty clothes have been traded for pjs. This is story time with Daddy. These special moments are brought to you courtesy of the Oliver Public Library and Daddy's enthusiastic yet calming reading voice.


We have discovered an author that we just love...
Chris van Dusen, author of the Mr. Magee books. They are a fun and silly series telling the tales of Mr. Magee and his adventurous dog Dee. The simple rhyme of the story line lends to some great interaction on Jackson's part as he tries to guess the next word that will come next.


We look forward to the library calls to inform us that the next title is ready for pick up. Hoping to find some copies for our own private library soon. Unfortunately we have come to the end of the titles available. Hopefully an internet search can source out more Magee like titles.


But can there be...
Anything as fun and as adventurous as
Mr. Magee and his little dog Dee?
We will just have to wait and see...

PS. We have read Chris van Dusen's non-Magee titles, all just as excellent as the series, just hoping for more...
Update...New title being released this month! Randy Riley's Really Big Hit
