That's Not My. . . Joe Style

Last night, Joe wanted to kick it Clara-style for books-before-bed-time, meaning he wanted to sit in the chair, and read nearly all of the That's Not My. . .oeuvre. We began with That's Not My Bear. To make it more interesting, Julie asked Joe to find the letter B on the cover, "our helper friend to find the word 'bear'," as "That's not my bear. . ." appears on every page. He did, and then spotted "bear" on every page! The next book he selected was That's Not My Snowman. Spotting the word snowman proved to be trickier right off the bat as "our helper friend to find the word 'snowman'," also appears at the end of "that's." Tricky, especially since Joe readily recognizes all of the other letters in snowman, save N, with which he is a little slower. Then, Joe selected That's Not My Penguin. The letter P is a solid one. By the middle, Joe was turning to Julie and telling her "That wasn't too tricky," each time he found the letter P, our helper friend to find the word penguin.
