"In the wee small hours of the morning....two moms were chatting from almost 2000 miles apart. They were seperated by two times zones, 30+ driving hours, a very large mountain range and more rivers than you want to count...but connected by good friendship and four little girls who adore each other.... "
One of my very best friends, Jackie and I are starting this blog as a way of staying connected, both for us as adults and for our girls who miss each other terribly! So, in the spirit of the book "A Year of Mornings" , we are going to have a book club of sorts...via our blog! Each week, we will post a book for everyone following us to read with their kids and then at the end of the week, we'll post about what we did and have a linky for our followers to do the same! What a great way to get ideas, don't you think?
So, to really kick off our first week of blogging, I am offering a give-a-way!

A book for December that I would recommend... Ollies Ski Trip by Elsa Beskow. This one of my childhood favorites!!

For Dec. I'd love to do either Where the Wild Things Are or Bats at the Library - those are 2 of Princess Wild Thing's very fav books. Not Dec. themed but... lol
I forgot the mandatory entry! I couldn't find The Lady that Swallowed a Pie but we are doing The Mitten and Then Hat.

The Night Before Thanksgiving is one of them. Sounds like fun!
the mitten! i <3 that book
I have you in my pageflakes reader.
I posted my november book picks: Pumpkin Soup and A Turkey for Thanksgiving.
For December there are so many choices it hard to choose. Let's see Allie the Christmas Spider by Shirley Menendez is on my list of must reads this season. It is a ukraniane folk tale about a spider adn how we began the use of tinsle. This very just seems super sweet.
