Hey-o Bookworms, I think nearly 10 years of writing book listicles has polluted my brain, because lately I’ve found myself theming Sam’s bedtime stories. We are super lucky to have people in our life who value reading as much as I do, so our home library is beginning to rival the actual library. I’ve written… Read more »

Kid Lit with my Kidlet: Talk Like a Pirate Day

Penguin Books for Every Occasion: Kid Lit with my Kidlet
Hiya Bookworms! Y’all know by now that I’m an avid penguin enthusiast, and that I shamelessly roped my child into the obsession (check out his first Halloween and nursery if you require proof.)

Kid Lit with My Kidlet: Halloween 2018
Greetings, Bookworms! ‘Tis the season for pumpkins and candy, so I thought I’d share a few of the seasonally appropriate books I’ve been reading with Sammy lately. My son has a very impressive library, and, like his very impressive wardrobe, it has little to do with my own shopping. We’ve got some very astute children’s… Read more »
