Read Aloud Books

We have just finished two delightful book as read alouds in our (home) school. All three daughters and I laughed out loud throughout both books. "A Long Way From Chicago", and "A Year Down Yonder" by Richard Peck are the tales of crusty Grandma Dowdel and her two grandchilren from Chicago who visit her for a week every summer. And every year, amazing things happen in Grandma's quiet IL town. Each amazing episode finds Grandma Dowdel and the kids smack in the middle of it. There is only one thing sure when you visit Grandma's house: no one can predict what will happen next.
