My family has been fans of Richard Scarry for years
and I have a photo from 1974 to prove it.
Sorry for the poor quality of this scanned photograph. That's our youngest son Bryan reading Richard Scary, up-side-down! (Sorry it's hard to make out the lime green and orange wall paper and linoleum. Yes, I did that on purpose - why didn't someone stop me)? Isn't he just the cutest little thing with his corduroy pants pulled down around his ankles? I actually remember that blustery winter day.
So anyway you can imagine my delight when VIP came out with fabric featuring the adorable drawings of Richard Scarry.
These were the first books my boys "read". They loved the animal citizens of Busy Town and never tired of hunting for Lowly Worm and the Pickle Car.
Such fond memories.
A quilt along with a Richard Scarry book would make a terrific gift for any little one.
Or maybe pajamas and a book.
How cute would that be?
I just think every family needs a Richard Scary memory!
Encourage one another,
