I don't get to read alot but at the moment I'm reading 'How to talk so kids will listen and listen so kids will talk.' It was recommended on a blog I read.
ReplyDeleteIt's not that I have a problem talking to my little ones but am just trying to be proactive and do anything I can do to better our relationships as they grow.
It's a great read and I would recommend it to all teachers and parents!
The books you've listed look interesting. I'd love to know what some of them are about!
I know it sounds funny because I'm not a mother but I actually find reading about raising children quite interesting :) And I think it's great to read and educate ourselves on our interests and things we're going through in life.
DeleteThanks for the feedback too, I've edited the entry so that each book has a little blurb underneath.
Ooh now I want to read the Light Between Oceans!!
