Reading Rainbow

http://www.youtube.com/v/c6j8EiWIVZ&rel=1">

Reading to each another is a favorite pass time of ours. Combined with the fact that we don’t have TV and went on a fair number of road trips this year we got a respectable number of books read. Caution: Dave was laughing so hard he couldn’t see while we were reading Cheaper by the Dozen. He was driving at the time. This required us to put the story down temporarily to keep us from flattening some poor lady crossing the street with a stroller or other like vulnerable pedestrians, duck crossings, city lawn maintenance men and such.


Lemony Snicket 4-13 (Read the first 3 during Christmas last year. We were captivated.)
Sea Wolf
New Moon
Twilight
Eclipse
Cheaper by the Dozen (Highly recommended. And where we got the inspiration for root beer)
Belles on their toes
Harry Potter 7
Wicked
A Walk in the woods
The life and times of the Thunderbolt kid - (Dave shared most of it with me through bursts of laughter)
Swiss Family Robinson (Not really what we were expecting.)
The Lonely Moose (Thank you Stephanie)
Panda Cake (From Dave’s childhood. He just had to find it.)
The Once and Future King
Kite Runner (started)
The Golden Compass
The Subtle Knife
The Amber Spyglass
The Prince and the Pauper


These are in no particular order and do not include the books we read on our own. Most of these were fun to share together. And if I forgot any hopefully Dave will add to it.

Everyone should have a copy of Panda Cake! Too bad we never actually made one. I guess it's not too late.
