A Good Read 2

Family

What is your favorite children's book?

Some of my favorite images from sessions are images of kids reading or being read to by a parent. There is such a tenderness in the moment and
it brings back a flood of memories of my boys when they were little.


I LOVE to read and I have tried to instill the love of reading in my boys. My oldest is an avid reader. He'll read anywhere and every where. He even uses a head lamp so he can read in the car at night. He prefers books that come in a series. His favorites are The Hunger Games (great movie by the way), Harry Potter (I believe he's read through them twice), Pendragon, Percy Jackson and many more. My youngest loves to buy books, and sometimes likes to read them, but most of the time loves to be read to. His favorite series are the Diary of a Wimpy Kid and Big Nate. Our favorite to read together is the How to Train Your Dragon series. There are so many great memories connected to many of the books we've read over time. We recently tried to reduce some clutter in the boys rooms but the one thing we had a hard time getting rid of was books. Here is a list of some of our favorites:

1. Bear Snores On
2. Love You Forever
3. Where the Wild Things Are
4. The Miraculous Journey of Edward Tulane
5. Are You My Mother?
6. White Rabbits Color Book
7. The Little Mouse, The Red Ripe Strawberry, and the Big Hungry Bear
8. How Do Dinosaurs Say Good Night?
9. Jubal's Wish
10. Skippyjon Jones
