Read Across America continues


Tuesday.... Crazy Sock Day... How many of you have actually read, Fox in Socks. I know I have before, but did not remember what a tongue twister of a book it is. I found myself cracking up and needing some water while reading it. Dasher and Emmah found it pretty hilarious that mom was messing up while reading. So, with each day of this spirit week, there is a book that goes along with the theme. Day one, was The Cat in the Hat. The kids were pretty stoked that we even had that book. Umm Hello, I love books, so of course our library has this one. After reading about the destruction of Thing One and Thing Two, the kids were starting to look a little mischevious. Our weather around here lately, could spark some destructive curiousity. Anyway, again, Day Two was Fox in Socks... go ahead and try reading that one without messing up a time or tow. Day Three was the Funny Hat Day, as seen in the above photo, Dasher picked to wear his hat from the zoo. He says it is a dinosaur, I think a crocodile, either way, it was a fun hat to wear. The book chosen for this day was The 500 Hats of Bartholomew Cubbins. They were also encouraged to wear a t-shirt with words on it. He chose to wear his Lean and Mean Just Like Grandpa shirt. He likes this shirt because of his sight words.... and & like. I forgot to charge my battery to my camera, so I don't have a picture of him with the shirt, but the hat really was the show.

It is fun to read all of these Dr. Seuss books. He truly was amazing. Onto Day Four and Five To be continued.... Are you reading?
