Books My Kids Read


I get asked all the time what my kids are reading. I don't know if it's because I'm a mom of four, because I'm an author, or because our car, house, pool bag, porch, very lives are littered with hardbacks, paperbacks, a Kindle and picture books. But the books we read are truly a reflection of who we are. Since people are curious. I decided to start this tab on my blog to share what my kiddos are reading. But it only helps you, if you understand a little bit about them.

MADDIE - AGE 19, SOCCER OBSESSED SORORITY GIRL 
MAX - AGE 17,  BOY WITH MUSIC IN HIS SOUL AND SPEED IN HIS FEET 
MALLORY - AGE 14, GIGGLING, GIDDY, GIRL WHO LOVES SOCCER AND HER FRIENDS
MAGUIRE - AGE 12, CREATIVE, FREE SPIRITED ACTOR DANCING TO HIS OWN BEAT

THE MARK OF ATHENA

Picture
A few years back, when it was first released, Maddie, Max and I all read the first Percy Jackson book. I really enjoyed the wacky characters and adventures, but because my reading pile is sky high, I never got around to read any of the other books in the series. My kids, on the other hand, kept reading. They moved through the other Percy Jacksons and the Krane Chronicles by Rick Riordan, as well. Now, Maddie is reading the The Mark of Athena, where the Greek and Roman demigods need to collaborate to save the day. As she savors the month and a half before high school starts, and all of the assigned reading that will go with it, I think this fantasy world is a great story for her to escape to.
