My last post reminded me of a book that the kids absolutely loved when I read it to them! It's called "The Monster at the End of this Book". You may already know it...
I found an ebook version of it online at...

Just copy and past the address above to go directly to the book. This is a great book for talking about using your voice in exciting ways. I tell the kids that it's boring to listen to a robot reading. We want to hear excitement in your voice. This book is a great example of that. As we become better readers, start encouraging your child to use their voice when they are practicing. No "robot readers".
