The Magic of Reading Aloud
   
Once upon a time, Moms and Dads read aloud to their children at night before bed, because there were no TV’s, DVDs, video games, iPods or tablets.
If you want to create some magical moments with your children while they are young, plan a few minutes of reading time together each day. Set aside the electronics, cozy up together, and let the world slip away as you share a favorite book. Here is a unique list of Read Aloud Books our family has enjoyed through the years that you may not have explored yet.
