Reading With Daddy

IMG_1692

One of Max's favorite things to do with daddy is reading. Recently, Tyler has started reading chapter books to Max and has started with the Chronicles of Narnia series. They are on the third book, Voyage of the Dawn Treader, already and they haven't been reading for all that long! Tyler and were sort of surprised that Max enjoyed sitting and listening to books without pictures. But he LOVES it and can't get enough of it. He listens and comprehends every detail, too. It's pretty amazing for a boy who's not quite five!!

Plus, it brings back great memories of when my mom used to read us books. We'd lay on her bed and she'd do all the voices! It's still one of my most favorite things we used to do with her!

Once 3rd year starts I may have to take over reading duties. Hopefully Max won't mind! I'm just glad this kid has a love for books like his parents.

That's so cool! Jonathan has just started liking the easier chapter books, like Frog and Toad and Henry and Mudge. We've also just started James and the Giant Peach. James and Jonathan both love listening to it.

I can't believe he is ready for those books...wow that's great. i read Chronicles of Narnia when tyler was MUCH older than 4...and didn't read it myself until i was 20!
