    7. Five Family Favorites With Alyssa Satin Capucilli, Author Of Bone Soup: A Spooky, Tasty Tale

    Several years ago, we moved to a new house. Although my fully-grown children were happy to help us get settled, there was nothing quite like the hours we spent joyfully unpacking, uncovering, and reminiscing as we pored through box after box of their childhood favorites. Each title transported us back to a magical and precious time, flooding us with the sweetest of memories. Here are five, with apologies to the many, many, many not included!

    8. How Picture Books Play A Role In A Child’s Development

    We all want what’s best for our kids and like the Army commercial, we want them to be all they can be. But parents can often succumb to the pressures of society and other parents to compete. That’s why some parents buy everything imaginable to get their baby to read, they enroll their children in the most expensive preschools, and even skip picture books and encourage their children to move on to more text-heavy chapter books as a means to advance their skills for rigorous standardized testing.

    9. The Gift Of Storytime Board Book Giveaway From Little Simon
