Do you recognize this child?
This is Miss Too-Busy-to-Sit-and-Read.
But wait! The story has changed.
Thanks to Grandma and Grandpa's gift of 3 Dick and Jane books,
Libby loves to read!
She hasn't loved books this much since a year ago
when she was just a few months old and had no choice
but to sit in mama's or daddy's lap and listen to stories.
(See archives of May 2005 for reference.)
Anyway, Libby loves Dick and Jane
and will sit and read page after page.
Two theories have emerged that likely both hold truth.
1: The stories are more interesting than simple word books,
but simple enough that she can follow along
and get the gist of what's happening.
2: The books are "big girl books" with paper pages
and chapters, not baby board books.
Whatever the reason, mama's thrilled to have her reader back!
