Your reading guide is quite beautiful. I read over it quickly and will send a copy to my daughter, mom of two children. She’s a big reader when she is not in the hospital working as a PICU nurse practitioner. ❤️ Reading is crucial for mom and kids.

Thank you Susan for your kind words. I am so glad to hear that your daughter has a connection to reading as parenting with that job is a lot (as you know). I appreciate you sharing the guide with her. I hope she finds it valuable.

Such an exciting project Kathryn! Congrats! I’m excited to dig in. I loved the “reasons we read” as parents section of this post. Community resonates strongly for me as both a reader and writer…parenting can be so isolating and being “close” to others through storytelling is a unique and easy way to connect. Many thanks!

Thank you Gail. I couldn't agree more, storytelling brings about many possibilities of connection on and off the page.
