CLASSIC KIDS READ: Green Eggs And Ham!

Literary Barbie love, love Dr. Seuss!

The classic book, "Green Eggs And Ham" is a book we all grew up reading.  Now our kids are reading this classic story.



Green Eggs and Ham: These unforgettable words that stay with you forever. “I am Sam, Sam I am” begins with this amazing tale. Only Dr. Seuss could compose such silly, yet elegant stories, and all with a simple thought. Kids and adults alike have loved and cherished the stories that have become a part of tradition. This is just one such story. With rhythm and rhyme that is easy to follow and a story that makes you want to say, “Just try the green eggs and ham, you may like them Sam I am!”, this is one story that may take you on adventures to read more tales by Dr. Seuss. Reading this book with a child may offer you more than you bargained for, especially when you try to read it faster and faster. An “I Can Read” book, this story for young children only contains fifty words, all of which are easily read and understood.


*So remember, as the summer continues to keep going, get your little ones into some great books to keep their communication skills in check.  Dr. Seuss is a great way to start as he is was one bad literary rock star.*

American Grown: The Story of the White House Kitchen Garden and Gardens Across America

First lady Michelle Obama's new book invites you inside the White House Kitchen Garden and shares its inspiring story, from the first planting to the latest harvest.  Hear about her worries as a novice gardener – would the new plants even grow? Learn about her struggles and her joys as lettuce, corn, tomatoes, collards and kale, sweet potatoes and rhubarb flourished in the freshly tilled soil.  Get an unprecedented behind-the-scenes look at every season of the garden’s growth, with striking original photographs that bring its story to life.  Try the unique recipes created by White House chefs and made with ingredients just picked from the White House garden.  And learn from the White House Garden team about how you can help plant your own backyard, school or community garden.  

Mrs. Obama’s journey continues across the nation as she shares the stories of other gardens that have moved and inspired her: Houston office workers who make the sidewalk bloom; a New York City School that created a scented garden for the visually impaired; a North Carolina garden that devotes its entire harvest to those in need; and other stories of communities that are transforming the lives and health of their citizens.  

*We hope that you learn a lot from this book as we have. Taking part in creating your own community garden is important to all of us!*

GET YOUR READ ON THIS SUMMER!

Spring is here and summer is on the way!

For all of you bookworms and other's alike, it's time to update that booklist!

Remember to choose titles that challenge your reading ability and that will enable you to learn something new. 

Reading is a great way to enhance your communication and social connections.  Once you start, I promise you won't want to stop:)

For all of my "mommies" out there, don't forget to get books for the kids.  If money is tight, then hit up your local salvation army or goodwill to purchase books.  Those places along with other thrift stores normally have kid books between $1-$6. 

Trust me it's well worth the gas to trek over to get your little ones the books they need.

All in all, don't forget to have fun this summer and definitely have super fun getting your read on.
