Why We Love These Stories

My kids are 12 and 8 now. For over a decade, I have read and re-read these stories aloud each night to them. The older kids now read to themselves, but it is still a core part of our night time routine for me to read to the 8 year old.

These stories aren’t the only ones we read. I’m currently finishing my third read aloud of the Harry Potter series. That a million words each time. However, the common thread for these stories is the rhythm and sound of the words.
