February Literature Favorites

We read a variety of children's literature last month from biographies to fantasy. Take a look at some of our February favorites!

You Read to Me, I'll Read to You by Mary Ann Hoberman

Sunshine had a lot of fun reading this partner book. She even got Dad involved for a few of the short stories!

I Saw an Ant on the Railroad Track by Joshua Prince

What happens to the little ant on the railroad track? You'll have to read to find out!

The Story of Ruby Bridges by Robert Coles

Inspiring true story. To find out more about this book and what it has meant to us. Visit God's Shining Stars.

A Mink, a Fink, a Skating Rink: What Is a Noun? by Brian P. Cleary

What a fun way to learn about nouns! Funny with quirky illustrations. "Hill is a noun. Mill is a noun. Even your Uncle Phil is a noun."

Abe Lincoln: the boy who loved books by Kay Winters

Great biography for little ones! Both my six year old and four year old were very interested in this book and learning more about Abe.

Happy Reading!!

  2. Thanks for the recommendation. I'm always looking for new books for Miss Priss. If I have to read "Olivia Saves the Circus" one more time, I'm going to lose it!

  5. The Blonde Duck- I love that one, too. Fractured Fairytales are sooo much fun. The True Story of the Three Little Pigs- very funny! Maybe I will post a bunch of fractured fairy tale suggestions soon. Thanks!!
