We have a reader in our house~


It is not enough to simply teach children to read;
we have to give them something worth reading.
Something that will stretch their imaginations-
something that will help them make sense of their own lives
and encourage them to reach out toward people
whose lives are quite different from their own.
~ Katherine Paterson




Ashley loves to read!! She will curl up in bed or in the recliner and just read and read until she finishes her new chapter books. Right now her favorite books are the Junie B Jones series. I hope her love of reading continues through out her life.

Tell that girl of yours to READ READ READ all she can now, because once she's a mommy, and all grown up, that time to read will s..l..i..p right away... and even though she'll WANT to, she won't have as much time to do it. And tell her to read ALL OF A KIND FAMILY. All of them. I bet she'd like them.
