Family Reads

Lori and Brian are the parents of 12 year-old Ben. Avid readers all, the parents are naturally interested in what books will capture the imagination and attention of their son – a quest that forms the center of Family Reads, a blog “packed with reviews of the best books, ideas, and inspiration for making reading a truly wonderful part of your family life”. Highlighting “dependably delightful books for kids”, Family Reads examines, discusses, and critiques books aimed at young readers, such as Newbury Medal winner Walk Two Moons and thoughts on what makes a great Fairy Tale (with a review of the popular Sisters Grimm book). Naturally, books take center stage here, and along with the posts, you’ll find reviews, recommendations, and insights on books for children of virtually all ages, covering categories from Adventure to Suspense (yes, you can order the books covered here). This is a wonderful online bookstore and library all rolled into one, and will be a big help in encouraging your kids to read.
