What we are reading

I posted the other day what I am reading right now (I finished Sinners in the Hands of a Loving God, and started A Farewell to Mars since then, another make you think book about the connection of empires and God) But it got me thinking, as a teacher I have always loved kids books and we love kids books at our house so I thought I would share our favorites right now, maybe you will get ideas of some good books, and feel free to add to the conversation in the comments (blog comments are moderated... thanks crazy people posting conspiracy theories... true story! so your comment will not show up right away but I will try to stay up to date with comments)

Doctors are very important at our house... so is our girls learning to not let people put them down because they are girls (The Faith Angle podcast had an interesting conversation about women and faith last week) so when I came across this book it had to have a home at our house

Lydia LOVES the peekaboo books! She laughs and says peek boo! When I use to work at a toy store I was really good at selling these books and now as a mom I still really like them

This is a really good story!

My kids love these easy look and find books... they get hours of love! The Sofia one is literally falling apart from how much it is read

My girls love to look at pictures of vacations, these autograph books are very well loved! Next time we go to Disney I might need to find a book that will last long term better

Any books about gardens!

These books are amazing about things girls have done around the world. It doesn't matter how you feel about the Clinton family, these books are really good!

We have a few of these books and really like all of them. The are great for taking with us and Jilli will play with the figures for hours

This book is cute. There are several along these lines out right now about since and they are done well.

Princesses and pineapples... this book is so Jilli! It is all about how fancy clothes are for sometimes but sometimes you need to wear other clothes so you can get messy in life!

Lydia loves these books with the reader

These shine through books are very cool!

It wouldn't be a Jilli book list without a body book. She reads a body book almost daily

This is a really cute book about a job, we like to read books about lots of different jobs

This is a cool book form the Indy children's museum. We bought it last year while visiting the museum and it is a really cool keepsake

I like these books because they are repetitive and filled with sight words

We don't own this book but Ann at RMH brought it to garden time and it is so cool how it engages the reader

With Jilli learning to read we have a few Bob books... this kit is my favorite because it has a workbook that goes with the books with coloring and writing to work on the sight words in the books

This book has pictures of kids in wheelchairs and talks about how beautiful everyone is 

So what kids books are you reading?
