What We Read This Week! 2/5/24




This bookcase has been the topic of conversation lately with anyone visiting my house for the first time.  The first question they ask is, "Do you still read picture books?"  Yes, I do.  Now to some that won't seem like a big deal to others, it only will when I tell you my youngest is 13.   Here is the standard answer I give.  We have always read books together in the morning; my kids don't know anything else.  In reality that is only part of the story.  Two of my kids struggled to read.  They were way past picture book years when they could read these books independently.   Since they struggled I just kept reading.  Then over the years, I've read enough about the different parts of your brain that are strengthened by being read to.   We just never stopped.  Most of the picture books go with what we are studying in history or science.  I also still read holiday books to my kids.  If you haven't read a picture book since you were a child I recommend you pick one up.  I've learned so much over the years from picture books.   I decided to share with everyone what books we have read this week.
