What Are the Guys Enjoying?

When interested in sharpening your skills, nonfiction books may catch your eye.  
"Fishing is my passion so I read everything possible on my favorite hobby!"

                                              ~Jake  

   

"When in Jr. High School, I came across
  Out of Your League by Dave Meggysey.

It made a powerful impression on me,

Gifts Bestowed Upon Loved Ones

 When you love story time, just
choosing one book is rather...a challenge!

Reading aloud to children is known to be an essential 

activity for enabling them to gain knowledge & skills

necessary for independent reading success.  

 

"When I was a little girl, my father read

Love You Forever to me...it was delightful.

Now I'm reading it to my girls."

                                                                ~Mrs. Wells

It's Family Reading Night!

 

The distributive property of multiplication, not alluring.

            Helping write a scarecrow story, more interesting.

                  But listening to someone read you a story?
