Babyliography CXXI

Rhiannon Fielding and Chris Chatterton, Ten Minutes to Bed: Little Dinosaur

2018 / Library book / 28 pages / UK

**

Various, My Little Pony Storybook Collection

2005 / Hardback / 186 pages / USA

**

She likes how the 'Minty ponies' look more like her knock-off toys, and their simple escapades make for more suitable bedtime stories than the brony stuff.


Anne Civardi and Stephen Cartwright, Usborne First Experiences: Going to the Dentist

1987 / Library book / 16 pages / UK

*

We try to find a new book on the subject every time her appointment comes up, even though they're always the same.


Unknown, Pokémon Classic Collector's Handbook

2016 update / Paperback / 128 pages / USA

****

Tom Percival, Ruby's Worry

2018 / Library book / 32 pages / UK

***

She got the emotion personification, but refused to see the monobrow as anything but an upside-down mouth.
