Are you needing some book ideas that your whole family can enjoy together? Books that multiple ages can come snuggle on the couch together while you read?
Here are some we are reading and thoroughly enjoying together.
When we read aloud so much is happening when they are listening. I think Sarah Mackenzie puts it so well,
“When we read aloud, we give our kids practice living as heroes. Practice dealing with life-and-death situations, practice living with virtue, practice failing at virtue. As the characters in our favorite books struggle through hardship, we struggle with them. We consider whether we would be as brave, as bold, as fully human as our favorite heroes. And then we grasp—on a deeper, more meaningful level—the story we are living ourselves as well as the kind of character we will become as that story unfolds.”
