Reading with Dad

Reading With DadReading With Dad by Richard Jorgensen, Waldman House Press, 2000, hc, 40 pp. Ages: 4-8.

Pull out the hankies! This is a book more for an adult who has fond memories of his or her dad reading to him or her, than for a squirmy two year old who wants an exciting adventure book. But, nonetheless, it is a book for adults to pause and reflect on because it is too easy to be too busy to take the time to read to your children. Even older children enjoy their parents reading to them. Reading aloud is not just for little kids. Why the hankies? My older children are no longer here for us to read to them. But at least they hopefully have the same fond memories as the daughter in this story.
