The Classic Show-and-Tell topic for January was family read-alouds, those books that contributed most to our family cultures.
Liz Olson shared Fairy Tales and Illustrated Bible Stories
Catherine Scott shared the Little House on the Prairie series by Wilder, Beatrix Potter's animal stories, The Little Princess by Frances Hodgson Burnet, Teaching Your Children Values by Linda and Richard Eyre, and 7 Habits of Highly Effective Families by Covey.
Helen Sullivan shared the Chronicles of Narnia series by C.S. Lewis. My notes were funny here, so add any others you brought if I missed them, ok Helen?
Amy Johnson shared We are in a Book and Elephant and Piggie by Mo Willems, The Circus Ship by Chris Van Dussen, The Little Mouse, the Red Ripe Strawberry, and the Big Hungry Bear (By Don and Audrey Wood, I think), the Mercy Watson series by Kate DiCamillo, and The Cricket in Times Square by George Selden.
Many of mine were on the other lists, but I added the Childhood of Great Americans series, the Great Brain series by Fitzgerald, Created for Work by Bob Schultz, and the Little Britches series by Ralph Moody.
Someone (was it Lori) mentioned the Wizard of Oz and The Night Before Christmas.
So many good books, so little time.
Feel free to add to this list, everybody, especially if I didn't catch something in my notes from the discussion or if you weren't able to be there that night.
