Reading With Little Ones

I started this blog because I love reading and I want to spark the same interest in my kids. So I started to list books we've recently read together and enjoyed.

My older kids are in 3rd and 4th grade this year. They earn points at school for reading books and taking tests on them.
Some kids struggle finding books they like (my 4th grader does) and parents don't know what books they can get for their child because the public library and book stores aren't labeled for accelerated reading, but mine is!

For those with preschool age and younger, I've included our favorite picture books, which I would recommend for any home library.

At the end of each post I have recommended books to add to your home library, just rent from the library, and whether or not the audio book is good (if we have listened to the book on tape.)
Happy Reading!

The Doll People by Ann M. Martin and Laura Goodwin


The Doll family has been passed down for generations through the Palmer family from mother to daughter. They are very careful to make sure the people they live with do not know they are alive. Young Anabelle Doll finds her Auntie Sarah's journal and tries to solve the mystery of her disappearance that occured 45 years ago. She gets help from her friend Tiffany Funcraft. The Funcrafts are a new family of dolls who aren't quite as traditional and rule abiding as the Doll family.

My eight year old daughter loves this one! I believe there is a sequel, "Runaway Dolls."
