A long break

 I have stared at this screen for longer than I am willing to admit trying to figure out what to type. I have been gone for a really....really....really....long time. Several years long. It has been a crazy last few years with lots of changes where reading has taken a back seat. I had lost the passion I once had for reading and books. Before I went to bed at night, all I had the energy to do was scroll mindlessly through social media instead of picking up a beloved book and devouring the pages as I used to do. I am happy to say though, the "library doors" of my heart have returned. I am back in the reading zone and so excited to bring this blog back to life!


Through teaching these last few years, I have come to love and adore childrens books. One of my absolute favorite parts of each school day were the times I had to share a story with my nuggets (as I called them). I loved seeing their reactions to different parts of stories, hearing their belly laughs, and experience their questions and comments about different parts of the book. In order to share some of my favorite with other lovers of kids books, I have started a new blog solely dedicated to picture books. I hope to add some new favorites to your bookshelves and discover some new books to add to my classroom library. The link for that blog is:

I am excited to become a part of the reading community again and meet some fellow booklovers!


Happy reading!
