Library
If you love to read as much as we do, then you know there is no such thing as an outdated book. Books are magical little beings with the ability to make themselves new with every reader. New releases come out with much fan fare. They end up on everyone's wish list and dominate bookstore space. Often time older, but still really great books are shelved and forgotten about. Skylar's library strives to keep our favorite books front of mind. We want to make things easy for those of you looking for books to share with your little ones. Some of the titles might be a little difficult to find, but trust me; they are well worth the searching for. Your public library is a great place to start. Use Skylar's library as inspiration. Many are books she owns and has read time and time again.
I am blessed to be friends with the ladies at Square Books Jr here in Oxford, Mississippi. They recommend new books and often invite us out to meet the authors of her favorite books. We've been introduced to a lot of great books, but understand there are many more to be discovered. If you have a book that your child loves and you don't see it here, please send us an email. Skylar would love to read it and maybe share it on her reading channel.
