The Read-Aloud Family: Making Meaningful and Lasting Connections with Your Kids by Sarah MacKenzie
5.0
This was a great book with practical suggestions on how to create a culture of reading in your house by doing the reading yourself, to your kids. Simple, but effective. We do this with bedtime stories, so I think the philosophy has been a success for us, but I also got some ideas from reading this and some encouragement. Recommended.
Unrelated: books written for moms tend to have a different "voice" and I think it has to do with the verbs used: I personally hardly ever use verbs like "toss", "peek", "sprinkle", "grab", and the like. However, books written to moms commonly use slightly whimsical verbs like these to describe ordinary activities. Why? I'm not sure I fully understand it, but it's an observation I was finally able to articulate while reading this book. It's not a bad thing, just something I noticed.
