We've been in cleaning mode for several weeks around here, an effort that will eventually lead to reorganized kids' rooms, new flooring downstairs, and a clean(er) garage...or at least we hope! Over the weekend, I discovered a forgotten treasure: a collection of children's books that I inherited from my aunt. They are called "The Young Folks' Shelf of Books". They used to live on the top shelf of the bookcase in the front entry at my Granma's house, for years and years.
I got them out tonight for the kids to look at. They are story books ("chapter books", as our kids call them) on different topics, nine in all. Bitty asked to look at them and I pointed out that they don't have many pictures. He said, "I don't mind if they are chapter books, I have a big flat screen tv in my head and I can see my own pictures!" Yea for imagination!
