I don't know about you, but here in Tennessee it's SUPER HOT! Yesterday, we had a heat index of 116! And the last thing you want is for your children to be outside playing. So dangerous! And even with a pool, you can get so dehydrated so quickly.
This heat creates a perfect time to cool off inside and celebrate READING!
While my son is just 4, he can't read yet, but he really enjoys book after book after book! We have several that we seem to fall back on, but one that really stands out to me is My Name Is Not Isabella.
It's an amazingly inspirational story for young girls featuring some of the greatest women in history. I love how they feature these women in a book meant for very young girls. And while it's meant for girls, my son really loves it too! There's a boy's version called My Name is Not Alexander which we haven't read but based on Isabella, we definitely should!
