I have recently rediscovered my love for reading.  Other than my duties as “queen of the household”, I found out that a good book is sure to keep me away from the computer for long periods of time.  This love for reading is something that I hope I can pass on to Abby. 

Presently, Abby can’t ever go to sleep unless I read to her first.  In school, I know she does a lot of reading, too.  Hubby and I are always on the lookout for new books to add to Abby’s ever growing library…if only to keep her interested in reading.  I know there are parents out there whose child/ren might not be as fond of books as my little Abby.  It might help  if you make use of personalized children’s books.  These are story books where the “star” is your child him/herself!  I really think kids will get a kick out of this.  Last Christmas, Abby got personalized CDs from her godmother.  All the songs had her name in the lyrics, as if the songs were made for her.  And she really liked the CDs.  I bet she and other kids will be as excited if they find their names in books as well…in stories about themselves!  Let’s spread the love…for books, that is!
