9 Picture Books for Strong Girls
As we continue to march our way through Women’s History Month (see what I did there?), I thought I’d share just 9 picture books for strong girls. These are great books to share with young girls, obviously, but they also need to be read with boys too. Repeat after, “there…

Slice of Life Day 5: New Book, New Possibilities
A new book is a world of new possibilities. I get so excited when I’m starting a new book! What will I get out of this book? The possibilities are endless. I could learn something new, connect with a character that allows me to connect with someone in my life…
