About Me

Hi Friends,

I started the recommended reading blog to share with you some of my favorite children’s reading books. Reading is such a powerful tool for growth and connection. I hope you find these reading resources helpful. I am not a certified teacher, just a mom that cares about helping other parents and caregivers connect children to the power of reading. 

​The library is and always will be my first choice for reading material. But you know some books are just too good to only read once. Some books need to live in your heart and on your shelf. Most of my blog posts will have amazon links but a few will not. Raising a reader is an incredible gift you can give a child. I hope you will follow me to get a new list of reading resources each time they are posted.

​Cheers!
