“Outside of a dog, a book is a man’s best friend. Inside of a dog, it’s too dark to read.” ~Groucho Marx
What is your favorite book of all time? What are your kids’ favorite books? What about your significant other? Have you ever read a book as a couple? Where do you like to read?
Reading has always been an important, even central part of my life. I consume books – and magazines, articles, even cereal boxes – as regularly, if not more regularly, than food. I spend most of my day at work reading and researching (see below – that is my actual inbox at work). I depended on my reading skills all through college and Law School.
And now, as a mom, reading has become an even more important part of my life because it is something powerful, wonderful, fun, and enriching I can share with my family.
The Family That Reads is a place for me (and you!) to explore reading – for pleasure, for interest, for enrichment both for myself and my family. Looking for a good Sex Ed book for your kids? I’ve got recommendations. Bedtime stories and reading routines? They’re here. An interesting magazing article on parenting, gardening, law, or some other random controversey? Yep, we’ve got that, too.
But what I WANT is input! What do you read as a family? What is your favorite “guilty pleasure” book? When and how to you find time to read? What is your favorite magazine?
