We read a LOT of books in this house! Here are our favorites from December:
Steve's favorite was The Rest of the Story. (Great for reading out loud to anybody who might not be too enthused about reading.)
Robin's favorite was Blessings of a Skinned Knee. (Definitely not your typical modern "parenting book," which is exactly why I liked it . . . we're not interested in raising your typical modern children.)
Rebecca's favorite was All Quiet on the Western Front. (And we actually got some commentary from her on this one! "I liked learning about the German side of war.")
Sabrina's favorite was Elsie Dinsmore. (She loves series books, and we love that this series is "character building." )
Emily's favorite this month was The ABC Bible Verse Book. (She can - with heartwarming enthusiasm - now recite two Bible verses!)
We'd love to know what your favorite books were this month!
We read a LOT of books in this house! Here are our favorites from November:
Steve's favorite was The Metallic Cartridge Reloading Manual, Volume 3. (At least he's keeping up with the encouragement to read something!)
Robin's favorite was The Read-Aloud Handbook. (Highly recommended for any parent or teacher!)
Rebecca's favorite was The Great Gatsby. (It's set in her favorite time period. I didn't know that about her . . . talk to your kids about what they're reading! You'll learn something.)
Sabrina's favorite was All Things Bright and Beautiful. (This was one of mom's favorites at her age, too!)
Emily's favorite this month was another library book: Rolie Polie Olie. (Apparently, "Rolie Polie rolled out of bed, brushed his teeth, recharged his head!" is just about the funniest thing she's ever heard.)
We'd love to know what your favorite books were this month!
