Well thanks to Blizzard Nemo this week was not a total loss like the last one was. This week, I not only read some great picture books to the younger children we also read parts of several other books.
In the late fall, I started reading
At the Back of the North Wind. We are about 80% of the way through this book. I don’t love it but I am determined to finish it. We read some of this even before the storm and we’ve continued a little at a time.
On the day the storm started, my daughter Emma received a belated birthday present from her oldest sister Rebecca. She sent her the
entire set of Little House books. So I started reading the first book as well. (Becca took all of the ones we had (they were hers) when she moved to NY so it’s great to have a new set for the younger kids to enjoy.)
We also started reading
The Princess Bride but since I hadn’t read it before I wasn’t really comfortable with where the storyline was going so I stopped reading it out loud. I am going to try to read it myself though to see what I think.
We also read a bunch of picture books...mainly snowy ones. :)
