What We’re Reading
We brought these two books by Erin Dealey home from the library recently and my girls love them! Both of these books have great rhyming stories that had my girls giggling. Plus, all sorts of nursery rhyme and fairy tale characters are incorporated into the stories, which is just so much fun. I think the Easter Bunny might be bringing us copies of our own this year! Also, author Erin Dealey has a great website with activities and information on what it’s like to be a writer. Good stuff!
