If you have any ideas/wants for pairing children's books with a knitted pattern, please contact me so I can add it to this blog!
Also, if you do pair a book/pattern and gift it, I'd love to know what you did! Please leave a comment under the suggested book title - and links to your blogs are always welcomed!!

Also note, you may notice that the blog links to Amazon are tied to the blog. All money made from a sale of a book on Amazon will be donated to the Caucasus Children's Relief Fund.
I know some of you are thinking that these Easter books are coming too late. Yeah, but at least you can start planning for next year! Oh, and Kevin Henkes is really great!

thanks for all the inspiration of the books and a prize related to it. I have used your ideas for two baby showers, and both were well received. Please keep the ideas coming, and thanks again
Hi, I don't have photos, but I did the dinosaur books and the free little green dino that you recommended. Both baby showers asked for a book instead of a card, and I did the dinosaur in a washable baby wool that I had in the stash. Both were lime green.
Very nice to know, Knitandputt! Thanks for the great feedback and I'm very pleased the gifts were well received. Grumpasauras is such a quick knit, too!

Thanks so much, knitandputt. I wish I had a photo of what you made!
Which ones did you do?
