In which I list the books we will read this year

I have set a goal to read at least 18 good read alouds with the kids this year.  I have selected 16 of them already.  I think I will ask our local children's librarian for more suggestions for this age/stage We're looking forward to getting started on these!

1.  Adventures of Little Bear by Else Minarik and Maurice Sendak
2. Charlotte's Web by E.B. White
3. Winnie the Pooh by A.A. Milne
4. Little House on the Prairie by Laura Ingalls Wilder
5. The Secret Garden by Francis Hodgson Burnett  (Completed in February)
6. Pippi Longstocking by Astrid Lindgren
7. From the Mixed-up Files of Mrs. Basil E. Frankweiler by E.L. Konigsburg
8. The Lion, the Witch and the Wardrobe by C.S. Lewis
9. Tales of a Fourth Grade Nothing by Judy Blume
10. Ralph S. Mouse by Beverly Cleary
11. James Herriot's Treasury of Inspirational Stories for Children James Herriot  (Completed in January)
