Sometimes you can live in a place for a good long while and make a new discovery. It turns out that on the OSU campus there is a library completely dedicated to children's books. Margaux calls this the "secret library" because when we went, there was no one was in it but the librarian and us. She thinks we are the only people who know about it. The best part is that the shelves are filled with the very best in children's books. Every single one we checked out was fantastic. I have such fond memories of checking out books with my mom, and I am so happy to share this experience with my own daughter. We are about to sign up for the summer reading program at the public library, and I can tell this is going to be a great summer for reading. If you have a favorite children's book we should read, leave us a message in the comments. We'd love some suggestions. -Cindy

I love the library. Wish I had a secret one too. Some that my guys liked (1) Gregory the Terrible Eater, (2) The Monster at the End of this Book, (3) Alexander and the No Good, Terrible, Very Bad Day, (4) Anything by Richard Scarry, and of course all of the Dr. Suess series books. When you get to chapter books you may want to see if she likes Ribsy and Romona by Berverly Cleary (old but classic). We also read several of the Boxcar children books and the Lion the Witch and the Wardrobe series. Happy reading!
