My youngest celebrates his birthday at the end of July (along with Harry Potter). This year I asked for his help to rank a few birthday-themed books, and here are the results.

Unhappy birthday, Grumpy Cat!

Berrios, Frank, author.

From the Publisher

"Grumpy Cat is about to have the most unhappy birthday ever--and that's just the way she likes it!"--Publisher's description.

My Thoughts

I was not surprised to see Grumpy Cat at the top of the list. The last page was my son's favorite.

Happy birthday, Hamster

Lord, Cynthia.

From the Publisher

Follows Hamster and his friend Dog as they prepare for a birthday party.

A very dinosaur birthday

Illustrations and rhyming text show what to expect when dinosaurs show up at your birthday party, from their bringing moldy presents to their eating all the food.

Happy birthday from the Very Hungry Caterpillar

From the Publisher

The Very Hungry Caterpillar celebrates birthdays, from presents and balloons to cake.

It's raining tacos!

Gripp, Parry, author.

From the Publisher

"Taco-bout irresistible! Jam out to the catchy, toe-tapping tune "Raining Tacos" from YouTube sensation Parry Gripp, featuring everyone's favorite treat!"--Provided by publisher.

Little Critter and the best present

Mayer, Mercer, 1943- author, illustrator.

From the Publisher

"Little Critter finds the best birthday present for his sister"--Back cover.

The backwards birthday party

Chapin, Tom, 1945- author.

From the Publisher

At the backwards birthday party, a donkey pins the tail on the guests, the ice cream is hot, and the candles are not.

My Thoughts

I'm told this book came in last on the list because it was too confusing!
