The Avocado

The Avocado Parenting Thread Reads Some Books!

Hello fellow parents and caregivers of children!

There are a bunch of new parents here (raises hand) and there are plenty of veteran parents, as well as people who have experience caring or helping to care for children, like teachers, baby-sitters, aunts, and uncles. Coming together will help all of us, whether we need advice, commiseration, or just a space to let it out. Being a caregiver of small humans can be hard, but also rewarding and wonderful, so we can also share in the joys of watching little humans get to be big humans.

This week, let’s talk about Books.

What’s some good book that your kids like, or that you like to read your kids? For those of you with kids who are learning to read, what books have really enticed them or made reading something they wanted to do?

(Feel free to post about things unrelated as well, the prompt is just a suggestion.)
