Book Recommendations from Hubby, Thing 1 and Thing 2

Hubby:  Matilda by Roald Dahl

My husband recently discovered this book and loved it. He said he regrets not reading any Roald Dahl books when he was younger but has now started to fix that. He is binge reading all of this author’s books.

Thing 1 (Age 7): Just So Stories by Rudyard Kipling

My daughter is only just discovering children’s classics, and Kipling is definitely that. She loved all the stories in this edition of Just So Stories and is looking forward to picking it up again. She tends to read the books she loves more than once, like me.

Thing 2 (Age 4): Hugless Douglas by David Melling

Douglas is a young brown bear who wakes up from his winter nap realizing that he needs a hug. So, he sets out to look for one. But he cannot find one anywhere! Poor Douglas. When I first read this book to my daughters I did so in Spanish but it has now become one of their favorites. And my youngest loves to read it and hug all of her plushies after. It is very cute.
