Great Spring Books

A few weeks ago Olive finished her 100 Easy Lessons book and was so excited!  During the year we mixed it up with Bob books, Dr. Suess, and Hooked on Phonics.  I feel she now has a good grasp on reading and is gaining more confidence with each book we read.  As a reward she can pick out a dress for her American Girl Doll.  I am so proud of her!      
 The girls loved Strega Nona's Harvest by Tomie dePaola, it went along nicely with planting our small garden.
 Mr. Rabbit and the Lovely Present, By Charlotte Zolotow is a lovely book that teaches colors in a special way. 
 I loved the illustrations in Cinderlily, By David Ellwand.  This twisted fairy-tail has an adorable rhythm with lovely photos.
What are you and your children reading this month?

I love your comments; they make my day, especially when you find an old sippy cup under the bed!
