100 Books-A-Month Challenge, Reading My Library

 

For the 100 Books- a-Month Challenge we are doing fine. For Reading My Library, we got a little off track this month. I made the mistake of bringing the kids into the library while I looked for some specific books. While I was busy searching through on the shelf they chose piles of books to bring home that day and we are still working away at those piles. So, instead of going and picking the authors from the letter we are working through we read their pics and some select books I chose for specific subjects. I'm going to try and get back on track in June.

Another great list!! We got off track with the Reading My Library as well. Plus, we'll probably restart once we get settled in our new space. We'll see.

Thanks for reading along with us! :D
