The Last of the Mohicans

Today we started reading this book. We should have started it a while ago but…. anyway. I told the kids I wanted to read 15 pages a day so we could be done by next Wednesday, without having to do the weekend. Well, I started reading and Kyle LOVED it. If you know Kyle, you know anything that has to do with books is not usually up there on his list. Well, I stopped reading after getting to page 38, and you should have seen him. He actually begged me to keep going!! (Beth was done and it was getting late, otherwise I would have)

What a blessing to see he is interested in a book. I have to say, I am enjoying it too. You can get it from the library when I am finished…. Maybe by the end of this week!

That is the key to getting him to love to read. You just have to find the subjects that best interest him. There are a few book series' that Jacob just loves to read. Books make wonderful Christmas gifts!!!

Love,
Patrice
