Our Family's Favorite Books

The joy of reading as a family has been a highlight of our lives. When we laugh, cry, or get excited about a good book we grow as individuals and together. Below are some of our favorites throughout the years. For your reference, Danny is age 9 and Jimmy is 7. Mom and Dad are older.

Charlotte's Web, by E. B. White

Green Eggs and Ham, by Dr. Seuss

Hank the Cowdog Series, by John R. Erickson

Harry Potter and the Sorcerers Stone (Book 1) by J. K. Rowling (Book 2, Book 3, Book 4)

While I've included links to Amazon for your convenience, one of our favorite places to be is in a bookstore or library. Our favorite bookstore of all places is the Tattered Cover in Denver. It is worth coming to Colorado just to see the store.
