Turning the Page

December 28, 2020 By Annette1 10 Comments

Click here to go to my disclosure policy.

Today’s challenge with the crew is Turning the page.  Oh… that can mean so many things can’t it?  When I think of turning the page it makes me think of books to read and just how much I love reading an actual physical book.  Though in the past couple of years I really discovered the joy of listening to audio books as I work.  So many more books I can read that way!  🙂 

As I consider the books I’ve read this year I thought it incumbent upon me to share with you my favourite picture books I have reviewed over this past year.  Some of them have been wonderfully good.   Let’s talk shall we?  

I’ll link to my reviews as well as give you hot links to amazon (affiliate) should you be interested in turning the pages of these books with the children in your life.

    A great list of books! I don’t think I have any to share at the moment. My reading has been a bit hit or miss with no access to the library.

    Like you, I enjoy holding a physical book. I’ve tried so many times to use audiobooks but my brain gets so distracted that I don’t remember anything. Not sure if my concentration level will get better with time or not! My son is a fan of Dino Dan and Dino Dana (we do have to discuss the differences between scientist theory of the dinosaurs timeline and God’s creation timeline but overall the series is fun. So I will be interested in your review on that book.

      yes, you can do them in a variety of ways. Post a pic on social media, or a small post on them, or write a blog post. it’s just a post reminder that you can play with however you like. Some are much easier than others to do! 🙂
