Our new favorite book
Anna Kate and I are deeply involved in a new book. It is called The Miraculous Journey of Edward Tulane, written by Kate DiCamillo. Ms. DiCamillo is the author of Because of Winn-Dixie and several other novels that we are eager to read. We discovered her by chance when we checked out one of her early chapter books at the library for Anna Kate to read for school. It is the first of a four book series about a pig named Mercy Watson. Terrific! We are huge Kate DiCamillo fans now. The stories are precious and Anna Kate's vocabulary increases with every chapter. Check them out!

When is she starting Charles Dickens? Maybe a little Jane Austen? I think Anna Kate & Elizabeth Darcy will be fast friends. I can't believe she's old enough to be a little reader! Unreal!
I'll have to check that out. Good to know! LOVE YOU!
I was amazed by AK's reading when we were in PA. Maybe we'll have to scoot up there again, so I can be even more amazed. Right?
And, when are you going to post the post I've been waiting for... Jake Man signing! :)
I love DiCamillo! I think you would both love The Tale of Despereaux.
Yay for great books and great little readers:)
We just checked out that book today!! I can't wait to get started!
