Some time ago, I learned that not every child owns a book.  It breaks my heart to hear this, as I love to read and love sharing my love of books to Broxton.  We have a great collection of books and it is fun to add more to our ever growing library.  We were recently sent a few new ones for us to review and now I get to share them with you.   In one book, Sewing Stories , we get to learn of an artist named Harriet Powers.  This book tells us of her birth and her years from a slave to an artist through quilting.  Slaves were not taught to read nor write, so they told their stories by sewing.

Opinions expressed are my own and are NOT influenced by monetary compensation . I know it is summer, but it is still a great time to read and work on getting great books in our personal library. I am so lucky that Broxton likes to snuggle up in my lap for us to read and I hope that Savannah enjoys it as well.  We are working on our library for Broxton and then to pass along to Savannah.  Thankfully Random House Kids sent us a few more books to add to our collection!     Apes A- Go - Go    A fun book we just read was Apes A-Go-Go by Roman Milisic.  This was a cute book.  It is a hard covered book with pages full of colorful illustrations.  In this book, we head to a cute little town that is set to win the "tidiest town competition" for the third year...
