I feel like I'll be posting a lot of favorite books since Chuck is just crazy about the read-alouds. We're nearing the last chapter of Charlotte's Web and I must tell you, I don't want it to end.
Everytime we finish a chapter for the day, Chuck would beg to continue one more chapter. Then one more. Then one more. Until I can't take it & just doze off after. You know how reading aloud can take so much of your oxygen thereby making you sleepy? Well, I do this a lot after our Read-Alouds. Chuck's favorite part here is when Fern names her pet. Like Charlotte, he has developed a doting affection towards the pig. It teaches him how to be a friend, how to love as a friend, and how to serve as a friend. I have a mixture of excitement & caution when I read as I don't want to get too attached to the characters myself. I mean you'll forgive me if I don't want to mess up my reading just because I cried endlessly reading the last chapter. I feel like a kid everytime I read aloud to Chuck. It's a wonderful experience! And so is this book, it has an inviting way of making you fall in love with the characters.
