The boys' school had a book fair about a month ago. I always give the boys money to buy a book or two. Logan picked out a book called "Pete The Cat: I Love My White Shoes." That boy LOVES this book.
We have read it every night since he picked it out--he and Alex have it memorized now.
"I love my white shoes"
"I love my white shoes"
"I love my white shoes"
The boys sing the song and read the story and get excited because, well, I have to admit that it IS a really catchy little story.
We are also reading Treasure Island as a family. Jacob has it on his Kindle and he has been reading a chapter each night to the boys. What little boy doesn't enjoy a good pirate story?
Alex and Logan have started reading. It is the coolest thing to sit and listen to your child read to you. Logan is a very good reader and is getting faster. Reading is a little harder for Alex. He is really trying though and we are so very proud of him.
We love reading. The boys have such a huge library that we always have a great story to read. There are several books the boys have that I will keep even when all three of my children are too big for them. They are just great stories. We will hear the boys pretending to be the characters in the stories. It has really helped them develop wonderful imaginations (which I just love).
Here's to reading with your kids!!
