Share a favorite book with someone else...


Sharing a book with someone else can be a great way to spend time together.
Do you know someone who is just learning how to read? Do you remember learning to read? It was an exciting time, being able to finish a simple picture book and moving onto chapter books.
Spending time with a neighbor, friend, or family member who is just beginning a journey into the world of books will be an opportunity for you to experience that joy again.
Do you remember a favorite book you used to read over and over when you were first learning? Maybe it was Olivia or Froggie, Arthur or Curious George, or Henry and Mudge or Junie B Jones. Then you might have read every one of the Magic Tree House books before moving onto Fudge , Animal Ark, and the Spiderwick Chronicles or Charlotte's Web and The Time Warp Trio.
Spend time with them, sharing a book and taking turns reading aloud. You will share the gift of yourself with someone else and also rediscover the terrific books you read when you were younger.
