On this channel you will find mostly book videos. I read a wide array of books but I really love the Young Adult genre. I review books on this channel, recommend books, show you books I've bought, unbox some cool stuff & talk about movies and t.v as well!
So much fun stuff right? I hope your nodding your heading and say, yes! :-) I try to upload 3 times a week (sometimes more, sometimes less) I am passionate about reading; I truly love it so very much!
So if you interested please subscribe! It would mean the world to me & hopefully some fun for you as well!
God of the Woods was really good. I was also worried when I got it and saw how thick it was but…it was actually a pretty fast read. I think you’ll enjoy it!
Loved this vlog! I loved all the bird watching footage. We have cardinals, bluejays and oriole birds in our backyard. 🥰 Target mens graphic T shirt are my favorite!!
When you feel like you're not a great mom, just think of all the great things you Do do for your kids every day. I have 3 grand kids and still think that way sometimes. I think now that those of us that worry about being a good mom/grandma Are good moms/grandma's.
Glad you showed your "Weekend" shirt cause at the beginning I was sure what the rest of it said. I am casual all the way so love t-shirts with leggings. My work attire since I work from home....LOL. Seems literary fiction has been hitting for you lately. I want to step into that genre and glad you read and recommend them. Stay cool cause the summer months are hot, love it's lighter later but the heat. No thanks! Great vid as always and loved you added shirt of the day to your vlogs. 😃
You just give yourself all the credit!!! You are doing amazing. Even when it’s hard and you can’t see the end. Hang on and know that you can do the hard things. My daughter has a very difficult special needs child. It’s been a journey. Take time for yourself. I love your book recommendations. Thank for the content you provide.
This video was so relatable. I have three children, one was diagnosed with ASD. Your intro was so relatable. I keep reminding myself to enjoy the little this and this is just a difficult season of life. I'm so ready for school to start 🫣😆 I want to read The Wedding People
My kids have caused mental breakdowns too. ADHD mom here. Now I know what Forrest Gump meant when he said life is like a box of chocolates... motherhood is much different than I imagined. And my kids lives are much different than I hoped. But we live moment to moment. And I do my best to help them thrive and be happy
I have a 9 month old and we read to him everyday! He loves the sensory and sound books so far. I love the little blue truck series for him too! Thanks for the video and book suggestions! Some of these I hadn’t heard of and will definitely check out!!
I loved those Dragon books! Great video. I agree; it’s better to have books that kids enjoy reading vs trying to push to get them to catch up to their peers and possibly make them hate reading in the process. My mom would make sure our bookshelves were stocked full and always taking my siblings and I to the library at least every other week. I credit my love of reading to her and Reading Rainbow lol.
I remember reading "Mewtwo Strikes Back" which is a Pokémon one that was a Golden Book and I would reread it allll the time as a kid. Sadly it got so destroyed that it had to be thrown away. I wish I still had it tbh.
As a K-12 special education teacher & reading specialist - I love this video, hearing about your kids, and learning about the books they love! I'm so glad both your son & daughter like books... although with you as their mom, I would think it would be pretty hard for them not to!
I recommend the 'That's Not My' series for younger readers. My daughter who is nearly 4 has ASD and we suspect may be a year or so behind for her reading & educational needs & she still loves those board books. They definitely help to learn the words for textures.
Loving this video. I love seasonal books too, I think I have a ton of Christmas books. I have the bi-lingual version of the Curious George book you held up. My kiddo is getting into Curious George, he loves Pete The Cat, The Berenstain Bears, and Little Critter too.
My son is 31 and is on the autism spectrum also, and if it wasn’t for Dr. Seuss books, he would have spoke even later than he did. All that rhyming was key. Richard Scarry was great too to learn objects. My daughter loved a classic, Good Night Moon! Eric Carle was awesome for my other kids too! I had tons of Golden Books when I was a kid myself lol!
Love this video!! Your kids shelf looks just like mine 😊 I feel like us reader mom's have to pass on the love for reading and books to our kids! We love a lof of those same books. I have a 7 year old son and we currently love The Bad Guys graphic novel series by Aaron Blabey. I love the story as much as my son does, highly recommend checking it out!
As a former 3rd grade teacher with 12+ years of experience with children, let me say you are doing EXACTLY RIGHT in keeping him stocked on the books that he likes and can read and enjoy himself. You can always teach a child to read higher grade level books as they get older…you can’t teach a love of reading. It’s more important for him to love reading at whatever level he’s at than to be at a certain point by a certain time and HATE reading. 🤗 I wish more parents would understand this!
I love these types of videos being a mom of two and used to work with children in the daycare setting. It has helped to have a variety of books to look at.
This is so fun to watch! My oldest daughter is 4 and she loves so many of the ones you mentioned. Some of her other favorites worth checking out are Tiny T. Rex books by Jonathan Stutzman, Knight Owl by Christopher Denise, and the Magical Pet Shop series by Matilda Rose! They’re so cute.
What a great video. I am guardian to someone who has Cerebral Palsy with mental handicap as well. So she's 45 but has the mind of a very young child. she LOVES for me to read to her and we have a huge bookshelf full of books. Thanks for all these recommendations. We too love seasonal books.
Your in my thoughts and prayers Heather- stay strong. I bought Mixed Signals by B.K. Borison after your recommendation and I need to get Lovelight Farms I still need to read The Catch soon as well as First Lie Wins.
