Welcome to Litsy!

Finally made it to CA to meet our new granddaughter! I cannot wait to spend as many moments as I can reading to her. This week I plan to drop everything (except the baby) and read (to her) #AprilBookShowers #DropEverythingAndRead #grandmasrule #readaloud #readtoachild #raisingreaders

I don't have any pictures for #ReadToAChild because my nieces and nephews prefer to have their grandma read to them (apparently they don't appreciate me reading every word on the page instead of just giving them the gist of the story). So for this one I had to use a picture I posted on here a few weeks ago. #BookLove17

I haven't read to anyone in ages. 😔

When I used to babysit my friends little girl, these were her favourites to read with me.

(I know these are late, but I am finishing this challenge! 😋)

My read along with these goofy kids every night right now. #sharethelove #booklove2017 #readtoachild

My kiddo loves fancy things like that shoe book, but I think it perpetuates stereotypes :/ we read it last night. The horse book is pretty cute, though!

Day 13 of #booklove17 #sharethelove #readtoachild

Some nights, he's my super-sweet, cuddly little guy that hugs me when I tear up at the end of this book.

Nights like tonight, he makes up his own (not so sweet) stories for each page, giggles when I get emotional, and says 'Ok let's read Batman now.' 😂

My baby is 5 1/2, and his reading choices are evolving. 😥😃❤️

The picture is from The Wacky Adventures of Weird Beard the Pirate by Edward Teach, which I received via Kickstarter a bit ago. It's "about a surly pirate who was cursed - or some would say blessed - with a magical shape-shifting beard. During his adventures he comes across all different kinds of folks and creatures. By the end of the day somebody learns a lesson, but it usually isn‘t Weird Beard." Funky! #sharethelove #readtoachild #BookLove17

I love today's prompt because I don't think a parent has a more important role in forming a little human than reading to them. My kids have gone from our #readtoachild (Winnie's) to reading massive tomes on their own (Blood of Olympus). #booklove17
