His current favorite, which has hung around for quite a while now, is Russell the Sheep
Russell the Sheep is a story about Russell, a sheep with insomnia. All the other sheep go to bed, but Russell can't seem to fall asleep. He tries to find a comfy place, get warmer/cooler, and even counts the stars, but nothing helps. Eventually, he realizes something he could count -- sheep. Sound asleep. See what they did there?
Its cute, the perfect length for a quick bedtime story, and C loves counting along with Russell. This weekend, I asked a good friend to make a Russell style hat for C's Sleep Sheep and she whipped out the absolutely perfect stocking cap in no time at all. C immediately recognized my attempt at recreating his favorite character and has been carrying him around since.
If you're looking for custom knits, I highly recommend my friend Calea's shop - Zellashop. You can find her on Etsy or Facebook! Don't worry, in addition to hats for little sheep, she makes beautiful hats for babies/children and gorgeous photography props as well. Plus, she's super cool to work with, which is always a bonus. :-)
Well, off to read some Russell the Sheep with C and his very own Russell!
