What a great quiz! The only one I did not know was the last one. I love that you have The Very Hungry Caterpillar as your nursery theme! How cool! I’d love to see pictures of that. It must be adorable. Eric Carle books are among my favorite children’s books. I think The Very Grouchy Ladybug is one of my favorites to read to kids.
