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.

One For The Murphys by Lynda Mullaly Hunt
Mallory picked up this book at the library this summer and devoured it in two days. She insisted (against her brothers' protests) that it be our next "read aloud". After two pages we were all completely absorbed in this authentically raw and beautiful story of a foster child. Needless to say, as we reached the climax, I was sobbing so hard, Max had to remove the book from my soggy self and read the rest out loud for us. So touching and true -- filled with lessons of life and love and the importance of having someone believe in you. This is the best middle grade novel I've read in years!

I believe that books can open up in a new reality. That is why I'm also excited to turn the page of a book for an epic adventure. As I delve into this article, I knew that I've got to lay my hands at this literary composition. I need to grasp an imaginative array of vibrancy throughout my system. Although I have not read the book, I feel that it emanates mixture of austerity and ornate fixtures. Life is an endless journey of puzzling the pieces together. Reading a book can help alleviate the obstacles we face in our everyday lives.
