I'm going to take a slight detour from usual blog content today and talk about one of my passions: reading. We all have our escapes and for me it has always been fiction, novels, and characters I wish I could befriend in real life. Growing-up I was a voracious reader and many of those characters I met waaay back in the day I still keep close to me today; they're the ones who first helped me realize everything is possible! Here are a list of my top 5 books for kids:
 |
| Matilda - Roald Dahl |
Harriet the Spy - Louise Fitzhugh.
“[Harriet] hated math. She hated math with every bone in her body. She spent so much time hating it that she never had time to do it.”
Mr. Popper's Penguins - Richard Atwater. "Now a penguin may look very strange in a living room but a living room looks very strange to a penguin."
The Cricket in Times Square - George Selden. "Talent is something rare and beautiful and precious, and it must not go to waste."
