Making a Reader Out of Him

Posted on May 19, 2011 by Michelle O'Neil

On Tuesday, Seth and I snuggled up on “our” sofa by the vending machine while Riley was at Music Therapy. We finished the fourth and final Indiana Jones book. I read the last sentence. There was a beat. I smiled at him, curled up under my shoulder. He looked up at me, grinned and said,

“What are we gonna read next?”

And I love it.

I hope books bring him joy forever.

    There is just nothing so terrific as finding books we enjoy. Glad you and Seth have found ones you love.

    Oh yes!

    May I offer up the “39 Clues” books? Wyatt loved them. And they are great fun.
