Read out loudOkay for Now by Gary D. Schmidt
Gary D. Schmidt. He is now, in my mind, of the same genius as Charles Dickens. His writing is gorgeous, and it creeps up behind you when you’re not looking.
Wednesday Wars by Gary D. Schmidt
It’s light-hearted but by the end, it’s deep. And beautiful. And moving. I teared up twice in the last third of the book
A Place to Hang the Moon by Kate Albus
So many words so little space.
The Endurance by Alfred Lansing
This is a book I will continue to recommend on repeat.
The Adventures of Sherlock Holmes
Originally intended for a newspaper audience, these stories are great ones to read out loud or side-by-side with your older kids.
