Overview

Some of my fondest childhood memories come from reading. My mom would read to me and my sister classics such as Where the Red Fern Grows, Island of the Blue Dolphins, and my favorite, The Westing Game. There was comfort in these stories but more so was the sharing of these moments together. I'm challenging myself to reread more beloved books from my childhood in 2025. Some of these will be on my own, and some will be with my children. I'll also host a few buddy reads. Hope you join in and Reread Your Childhood!
