What's New

Reading Aloud

Reading Aloud

Colorful stack of books with a yellow book featuring a heart on the cover.

I've started a Substack account, @thehappyreaders.

For the past several years, I've kept a record of lines from books that have moved me, made me think of someone I love, or simply struck me as beautifully written. Looking back through them is like revisiting different versions of myself and remembering what mattered at that moment in time.

I'll be sharing those lines here as well.

I have always loved to read. When I was young, I read every chance I could get. Ramona the Pest, The Borrowers, and Pippi Longstocking were some of my favorites. . .

A complete (we think) list of books we have read aloud.  At least as many as we could remember.
