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

Mallory is reading The Kicks series by soccer great, Alex Morgan. The trick to getting kids to read is to have them read about things they love. Mallory loves soccer and reading, so this is a perfect combo. This series emphasizes lessons in team work, making friends, sharing, good sportsmanship and work ethic all through the mediums of fiction and soccer. There are currently three books in The Kicks series and Mallory has plowed through all of them, eagerly awaiting the fourth. For those of you not familiar with Alex Morgan she plays on the U.S. Women's National team and earned a gold medal as part of that team during the summer Olympics.
