myfunnybunch Posted September 30, 2009 Share Posted September 30, 2009 We just finished The Golden Goblet. I plan heading to the bookshelf in a moment to see what grabs me next. If nothing jumps out and says, "Read ME!" I'll go with The Phantom Tollbooth. Cat Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mellifera Posted September 30, 2009 Share Posted September 30, 2009 We're reading a biography of Amy Carmichael. That was my pick. The 9yo gets to pick next. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aurelia Posted September 30, 2009 Share Posted September 30, 2009 We just finished Black Beauty and started Emily's Runaway Imagination. Both were titles Ariel pulled off the shelf herself and asked me to read to her. (And during an OPG lesson, she had to put a card on "a book that looks like it would be good" - I found it sitting on top of Black Beauty that evening.)

Erica in OR Posted September 30, 2009 Share Posted September 30, 2009 Pinocchio with oldest My Side of the Mountain with middle Horrid Henry with youngest (although everyone listens most of the time anyway) Audio book for the car: CD set of the first 8 Magic Treehouse books. I wish our library had a larger children's audio collection. We need more fodder for hour-long round trips to piano. Picked up a 2001 copy of Jim Trelease's Read-Aloud Handbook at the library and found so many books I wasn't aware of. I want to start reading them all immediately. :001_smile: Erica in OR Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Peela Posted October 1, 2009 Share Posted October 1, 2009 Sophie's World. I am over it, personally and wouldn't have finished it..but the kids...well, teens...are enjoying it and want me to finish it. Next...I think I will go for a good science fiction like a Bradbury or Asimov or Arthur C CLarke. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
