How Will We Get to the Beach? is a fun book that we found out the library not to long ago. Written by Brigitte Luciani, the book is described as a "guessing-game story". I would rather consider this book an evaluating and thinking book. Roxanne decided that she is going to go to the beach. She wants to take five things with her. She runs into ...

We picked up the book Crippled Lamb (Max Lucado's Christmas Collections) by Max Lucado at the library. When I pulled it off the shelf to read, Bubs said "I won't like this book." Talk about judging the book by its cover! But as we read about this little lamb, Bubs' demeanor did a 180. I saw his face as he fell in love with the little lamb and ...
