New Book to Love!!

Well, we just finished reading the book STONE FOX, by John Reynolds Gardiner! It was amazing! The children loved it and we all felt compelled to read on and on. We finished it in only 2 days, all 9 chapters!!! The book is a very easy read, suspensful, and even a tear-jerker! (Well, at least I was boo-hooing at the end!)

I don't want to say too much so you can check out this great story about a 10 year-old boy who needs to save his sick grandfather and the family farm all by himself.

Parents, why not read it again with your child! I'm sure they'd love to share it with you!
