You guys know how much we love to read around here! Sorry I haven't done one of these posts in awhile. To be honest, we just haven't been to the library as much as we typically go. We have had some rotten illnesses circulating among us, then with the holidays we just didn't make it. Don't worry we have still been reading, just from our personal collection in addition to these few library books {thank goodness for online renewal!}
Here's a look at the books we enjoyed these past couple of months!

This time, Henry's favorite was hands down Charlie and the Chocolate Factory. This was a special book we only read to him and he loved it. At nearly 7-years-old, he is ready for longer chapter books exploring a variety of real and fantastical subjects. This was a great fit for him.
Nora's favorite, on the other hand, was A Field Full of Horses. Nora is beyond horse crazy so this was a great fit. It was a nice combination of wondering questions and solid horse-related information.
My favorite was Niko Draws a Feeling! It was a lovely celebration of artists and a great reminder to me and my children that art doesn't always look or feel the same way.
