I thought for sure they would have deleted my blog for non-use, but as it is still here, I can update my challenges. I did a lot of reading this year, and I will soon begin to compile my fave books of the year list.

I plan to try to read or highlight at least one wordless read for the next couple of storytimes. Flannel Board: Ten in the Bed I used a mod
