Every month is a new challenge to find new books! We are always reading pictures books. Yes, EVEN my 10-year-old reads pictures books. Reading of any kind is important. Plus not all pictures books are at the same easy reading level. All books have different degrees in reading level.<\/p>\n

It is fun to have a book you can pick up and read and finish sometimes. We really do enjoy reading picture books. This month’s collection comes from some of our travels, some we have bought and some from libraries that we visited.<\/p>\n
