We abandoned Anna and the King of Siam. I realized that what Connor was supposed to be reading for school was Anna and the King, which is about half the length... same author and all. Anyway, the descriptions in the "adult" book are long and, well, boring. The library doesn't have Anna and the King and I decided I just don't care enough to buy it right now. So (dare I confess this on a read-aloud post) we watched the Jodie Foster movie....
We finished Whale of a Story for the Master Books Summer Reading Program. This counts for any of my three youngest children. Great book. Fabulous illustrations. So much to look at.
Plans for this coming week? I don't know. William will be at scout camp, so I'm hoping to finish One Foot Ashore before he leaves.
How did your week go? Sign the linky and I'll definitely come visit your post. Love having you here...
To see my first post when this turned into a linky thing, check here.

Yay for movies -- sometimes you just need to kick back and watch it instead of read it.
I know I never join in, but I love reading the read aloud posts. We're reading books too. ;)
Another good week on your end, Debra! I didn't know about those AIO Passages books. I have discovered that my two closest libraries have copies of some of them, which will count toward my children's summer library reading program goals. I need to go to the library today anyway, so I'm taking notes and will be looking for those! ;)
It was fun to read about your Read-Aloud times. I love to Read aloud to my kids too. I think it comes from years of using Sonlight. I may have to join your linky next Thursday, I could use some accountability in making sure I actually get this done in the summer.
