My youngest son recently turned eight and he wants to know about alllll the things. Ever since he learned how to read he has been hungry for history, science, and odd facts. He reads nonfiction children’s books and reference books for kids almost exclusively, so when I had the opportunity to review a set of Weird…
Do you know what week it is? It’s Children’s Book Week! Yes, it’s a real thing. While it’s always children’s book week in our house, this week it’s official. Being the children’s book fanatic that I am, I want to celebrate by sharing some of our favorite recent finds with you. Some are new titles…
Unless you’re a time traveler from the past, you know that the Mo Willems Pigeon books are wildly popular with younger readers; especially Don’t Let the Pigeon Drive the Bus. If you aren’t already familiar with this wonderful book by this equally wonderful author, then I urge you to read these books to your kids…
It’s hard to believe that my little man will be starting Kindergarten next month. It seems like it wasn’t too long ago I was changing diapers and now we’re preparing for real school. Time needs to slow down a little! To help prepare us for this new chapter, we had the opportunity to review some wipe-clean…
We love vintage toys in our home; we collect vintage Little People, board games, and other toys from our childhood for our kids to play with and they love them just as much as we do. We don’t stop at toys, though. We also love vintage children’s books. Like so many others, the books from…
We love discovering new books in our house so we visit the library frequently. Lately, Dub’s favorite books have been interactive books where the child is asked to do something, like tap the page three times, and on the next page, something has happened. He loves feeling like he is part of the story. Press…

I received complimentary products in exchange for my honest review. It’s that time of year again; the kids are going back to school and we’re all geared up for learning around here. For the first time ever, I will have two kids in school this year. Dub starts Pre-K in a few weeks and we have…
Today is International Children’s Book Day! This day started back in 1967 as a way to celebrate all of the fabulous children’s books available to us and to (hopefully) instill a love of reading. It isn’t a secret around here that I love books and so do my children. Even as an adult, many of my…
I received a complimentary product in exchange for my honest review. If you’ve been around for any length of time then I’m sure you’ve gathered that we’re huge book lovers in this house. I even joke that I’m a book hoarder. I am always browsing bookstores, thrift stores, online, and the library looking for something new…
We are a house of readers. One (my husband) might even say I’m a book hoarder, but I have always felt that books are money well spent. They inspire the imagination, help you learn new things, and can be handed down to the next generation. I always give my kids a few books for birthdays and…
I am excited to give you a peek inside a great book we’ve recently discovered. It’s called The Dark and it’s written by Lemony Snicket with illustrations by Jon Klassen. I hadn’t heard of Jon Klassen until fairly recently and he has quickly become one of our favorites, both as an author and illustrator. I am not as…
As someone who shops online a lot, I often find myself wishing that there were more product photos available. Especially when it comes to children’s books. I’d love to see more pictures of the inside of children’s books to help me make a decision on whether to buy it or not. This is when I got…
I have wanted to start this series for a while now. I am always looking for books to read with my three-year-old and even for myself but I like to know more about a book before purchasing. It’s also almost impossible to discover every great book on your own and with the holiday season fast…
I received a complimentary item in exchange for my honest review. We are a house of readers and I am always happy to discover a new book for my kids or myself. K-Dub is really into books these days and carries them around the house with him so I was very excited when I was…
Even though they can’t read, toddlers love to look at books. These story books for toddlers will keep them engaged with gorgeous pictures and great stories. The world of books is so vast that we may miss out on a lot of great titles. Because of this I have compiled a list of books for…
I feel fortunate that both of my children love to read. I have done my best to foster their love of reading and so far it has been working. Because of this we are often running out of books. We make frequent trips to the library or thrift store for more books, but sometimes I’m not…
I See Me is a company that makes very cute, great quality personalized children’s books. They have a wide variety of books to choose from. They have story books and special occasion books for either gender. All of them include your child’s name. What child doesn’t love to see their name in print? I was given the…
