It's Algonad week!  The best week of the year!!!!

I have to admit it, I don't understand the music industry.  I primarily listen to rock/pop.  It can have a little country flavor or a little bit of soul, but it is primarily rock.  There are a lot of songs out there where I just can't understand why they aren't mainstream hits.

I decided to make that my theme for the week.  These aren't exactly underground songs but they are songs that don't get as much mainstream love as I would think that they should get.

Father Knows Best: Kids Books

75 Comments

Either my wife or I have read childrenʼs books nearly every night for the past ten years. The last four or five years have been more interesting as weʼve gotten into the chapter books read over multiple nights and not just repeated readings of Dr. Seuss or Berenstein Bears.

We do not read to them because we are convinced it will make them smarter or anything like that. The kids just really enjoy it and it is a nice transition for them from the activity of everyday life to sleep.

This will focus primarily on books that are good for five-to-ten year old kids since that is what I have been reading the past few years. I am not saying this is great literature or worthy of any awards (although some of it is). They are just enjoyable childrenʼs books and some of them do have some things the kids can learn from them.

Anyway, here it goes. There will be spoilers in each review as you may want to know how they end to decide if it is appropriate for your child.
