Tagged! The Book List

My SIL tagged my to post my current reading list. Here goes...

The boys and I are reading Magic Tree House books and a variety of other fiction and non-fiction books as read-alouds. Tonight my kindergartener read me an Arthur book:).

I have a hard time putting a good novel down once I've started it, so I only start one if I have a large block of reading time coming up. That hasn't happened lately--not since I was sick last fall. My current non-fiction list includes:

Naturally Supernatural

Siblings Without Rivalry

Raising Cain: Saving the Emotional Lives of our Boys

Teaching Children Authentic Worship

Beth Moore's study on the ministry of Paul

Becoming a Love and Logic Parent

I also read a lot of short stories in search of good material for our children's church curriculum and read a variety of other curriculum resources.

Hi Laurie,

Your list looks great. How do you like that book "Raising Cain"? Have you read any other good books about raising boys?

Raising Cain is really good--one of those books to re-read as your child ages into the next phase of development. It really backs up my theory that we need to teach our boys to recognize and express their emotions in healthy ways instead of feeding them the "Big Boys Don't Cry" lie.
