When my son was a little older I read to him while he bathed (still needed supervision to make sure the soap actually got used) and my favorites were the Carl Hiassan young adult books…Hoot, Flush etc.

Oh fun! The twins I used to nanny for were gifted those but I never got around to reading them, so now they are twice recommended and I should hop to it!

Love this advice! My recent find is “Katie, Big and Strong” by Jennifer Cooper. Female weight lifter and suffragist— it became enough of a favorite I just ordered a copy from our local bookstore as a bday gift.

I love her stories pacing and the soft illustrations. I may have lived Farmhouse even more than my kids! 😂

Thank you!! Farmhouse is a treat, like stepping back in time. Let’s read it all. It’s why I can’t part with the board books and don’t say no to the lengthy tomes either which explains why we keep building more bookshelves!
