Storybook Classics

This week, I read Kindergarten two of my favorite classics--The Story of Ferdinand by Munro Leaf and The Little House by Virginia Lee Burton. Every time I read them, I think of my grandparents reading to me when I was a child. When I spent the night at their house, I would raid the children's books that belonged to my mother and her brothers. Several of my aunts, uncles, cousins, and I could probably recite I Wish That I Had Duck Feet by heart. In fact, my grandma and her twin sister read that book to their great grandchildren now! These stories are wonderful heirlooms to be passed down from generation to generation.  For some warm fuzzies before bedtime, consider choosing these books this summer!
