This summer a group of moms and our incoming
first graders will be having a book club! We will be reading 3 books to our
kids (one for each month of June, July and August). Each book is the first
one in a separate series so that the kiddos can see if they like that
series or not (and if they do there are many more to read in that series)!
The books are all about a 3-4th grade reading level which is a bit above their reading levels and makes for a great book read aloud.

The first book in our book club this summer was “The
Littles” by John Peterson. It is about a super cute family of little people
that live inside the walls of the big people’s house. They have many fun
adventures as you can imagine!
Hornet (6yr old) and I liked “The Littles” so we
continued to read more in the series. While with some series it does not matter
which order you read them in, I think that “The Littles” are best read in their
correct order. There is some discrepancy in the order so check out both here
and here and choose!
Before the date of the book club meeting, each mom
read the book aloud to their child. Then we met at a park, reviewed the book,
played “The Littles” Search and Find and lastly played Mice and Littles Hide
and Seek. Fun was had by all!
