I've plucked pretty penguin picture publications and presented them here for a peek. Phew!

In my opinion, there's not much more that can raise my spirits than reading an amazing, uplifting picture book with a child I love in my lap reading along. Todd Parr is an author I highly suggest for these treasured moments.

Well, I certainly have those dragon lovers in my life, and I wanted to share some of my favorites to read aloud with them.

Friends are for people of all ages, but learning about them can be hard.

I'm going on a trip with my family this weekend-the entire crew. My mom and dad, my brother and sister, and all of our significant others. Plus, all the kids.

When we think of raising children to be the best that they can be, we think of teaching them every single thing we can stretch into our time. Oftentimes, when we talk about teaching them the things they need to know, we think of popular mainstream subjects such as math, reading, science, and history. But, we also need to be encouraging them to be what they want to be, growing up and finding what makes them happy too.

Some families are big, while others are small. Some families all look alike, while others don't look alike at all.

I admit it, I have a problem; I love llamas too much!

Oftentimes, when we think about comic books, we think of superhero comic books that are mostly for boys. Fortunately, this isn't entirely the case any more.

The other day, my husband asked me what my favorite map projection was. I wasn’t sure how to answer him, so I started looking at different map books that the library owns, specifically in the children’s department, and I was amazed that I hadn’t paid more attention to this section before!
