"As you read this, I hope you will understand that when I speak of the long night that proceeded these days of my happiness, I do not remember grief and loneliness so much as I do peace and comfort--grief, but never without comfort; loneliness, but never without peace. Almost never." The beauty and preciousness of #Gilead move me. The intimate letter is like being wrapped in a blanket on a chilly day. Warm. Comforting. Needed. #literaryfiction

"It doesn't follow that you'll be be anyone very special in Narnia. But as long as you know you're nobody very special, you'll be a very decent sort of Horse, on the whole, and taking one thing with another." The Hermit with the great long beard that nearly reached his knees. #readaloudrevival #cslewis

My daughters loved this as a read aloud. A perfect classic adventure for all ages! #caughtwithaclassic #Georgemacdonald #theprincessandthegoblin

Wonderful story based on real people and events. Highly recommended. #thelostboysofsudan #lindasuepark

At my latest library sale haul I found my 2nd purchase of Tales from Shakespeare. I haven't read the whole thing but look forward to sharing these fantastic adaptations to my young girls. #Shakespeare

I read this aloud cover to cover to my daughters on a day we spent indoors, the same day we watched the movie & discussed the differences. Book discussions with elementary aged kids are just fun. #dickkingsmith #waterhorse #booksforkids #middlegrade

How is it possible that I'm 38 & reading this for the first time! #lmmontgomery

After so many raving reviews from families who love to #readaloud I gave it a chance. Fell. In. Love. #middlegrade #andrewclements #frindle #readaloudrevival
