For the Love of Reading...

My mom and I have always loved reading.  My desire has always been that at least one of my children would love to read.  Hannah is an excellent reader but I couldn't seem to get her interested in reading outside of school time.  And Sammy just hates reading all together even though he's a descent reader as well.

Within the past few months the kids have found several book series at our local library that they enjoy reading so now it's no longer a chore for them.

Hannah loves the Dear Dumb Diary series and the Critter Club books.

Sammy has read several of the Diary of a Minecraft Zombie books and once, even asked to read for a while after he went to bed.  Yes!!

Amos loves Skippyjon Jones, Splat the Cat, Pete the Cat, Llama Llama and the Pout Pout fish.  He pretty much knows where to find each book on the shelves at the library.

I have read the majority of the Philippa Gregory books but recently discovered there are some new ones that I somehow missed.  So now I'm re-reading some of the older ones to refresh my memory before reading the new ones.


This is now a typical trip to our library...
