Wylie picked lots of books out last time and we had a few on hold. One of our holds came in and we made a special trip to the library to get it.
1. Everything I know about Pirates: Tom Lictenheld. We really are enjoying this book. Just enough history mixed with a perfect amount of silliness. We are reading it a few pages a day to enjoy it, talk about it, and just savor it. YES this is like candy to my child. I mean did you know that holding a knife in your teeth is looked down upon by the ADA, especially for pirates? Well that's a fact you learn in this great book.
The other book we've been enjoying and really talking about is the Egypt/Mummy book.
1. The 5,000 Year Old Puzzle: Solving a Mystery of Ancient Egypt: Claudia Logan. This is another book we are reading a few pages at a time. It's written by a young boy in the 1920s. It includes post cards he wrote to his best friend, his diary of the expedition, and then in the margins all sorts of interesting facts about Egyptians. Again, we are taking the time to read, discuss, and enjoy. Last night as part of the exploration of mummies we built a pyramid. Lots of fun.
What would I do if Wylie didn't like to read or be read to?
