Every night, we take turns and get cozy in our super-chic rocker and read at least two (but sometimes as many as five) books to Simone before she goes to bed. So we've read a lot of books in her nearly two years of life. There are some great books for kids, and a surprising number of really awful ones.

There's no telling why Simone gravitates toward certain books over others. We have maybe 50 or 60 for her to pick from, but she seems to always gravitate toward a handful of favorites. As dads, our criteria are pretty basic:

The light from Hollywood - a powerful beam of gongs and gowns and shock white teeth - lit up even our dank corner of north London. Thank Harvey the Film team were on hand to guide you through the dazzle. Xan Brooks' liveblog - all five hours and 58 minutes of it - followed the night from the red carpet right up to The Artist's best picture triumph.

All Celebrity Big Brother contestants have been given a task where they have to portray fairytale characters. Karissa Shannon, who will play Goldilocks, was called to the Diary Room last night to assign fictional roles for her fellow housemates.
