Summer Reading brings great books back off the shelf... #Hosted

National Read a Book Day had us reading several books around here.  When Broxton was younger, he LOVED to read... but it seems like his love has changed from reading to video games these days and I hate that for him. ( Any suggestions?)  Savannah says she "hates to read" but as soon as I grab a book she sits there and eagerly turns the page and tries to help me read... I really hope that both of them love to read as much as I do, one day!

Night Night, Groot

By Brendan Deneen 

 Illustrated by Cale Atkinson

It's been a long day for baby Groot and he's ready to be tucked in for bed. Just as his eyes start to close, Rocket Raccoon bursts onto the scene! Groot can't go to sleep yet, there's a whole galaxy that needs to be defended and they must work together to save the day! Then maybe, just maybe, Groot will finally get the rest he deserves!

We absolutely LOVE Marvel at this house, so we love this book so very much.  I know this is one that we will keep even once they outgrow it, just for the nostalgia of it through the years.  Seeing several different Marvel characters in this book is a must have for any and all fans!   

Bob, Not Bob: To Be Read as Though You Have the Worst Cold Ever

By Liz Garton Scanlon & Audrey Vernick

Illustrated by Matthew Cordell

Stuffed with the sniffles, BOB, NOT BOB! by Audrey Vernick and Liz Garton Scanlon with illustrations by Matthew Cordell, is immediately relatable to any child (or adult!) who's had a bad cold, when the only thing you want is someone to take care of you. You see, every time sick Little Louie calls out for "Mom," his stuffed-up nose brings Bob the dog running instead. Filled with wordplay and situational comedy, BOB, NOT BOB! begs to be read aloud, and it pairs especially well with snuggling.

This book had Savannah giggling the whole time... and it had mama realizing that I need to keep my day job and not try acting... I could NOT fake the reading like I had a cold...   I will spare you the pain of having to hear that!!!!   

What are you reading these days???
