The Bond of Books

September 2, 2019September 2, 2019 ~ moriahhamm ~ Leave a comment

This summer went by more quickly than any I can remember. Naturally, books filled much of our time. But, it was more than just reading books on a required list. This summer reminded me that books bond people. I'm a board member for the Friends of the Library in our town. The FOL holds a … Continue reading The Bond of Books

A Page-turning Summer

June 19, 2018 ~ moriahhamm ~ Leave a comment

It's that time of year again. I've started to see the inevitable post pop up on social media. Which post? "Moms, how do you get your kids to do their summer reading?" or "Fellow moms, do you know of any great summer reading programs for the kids?" So, I thought I'd share some ideas for … Continue reading A Page-turning Summer

Themed Book Baskets for Easter

March 12, 2016March 12, 2016 ~ moriahhamm ~ Leave a comment

If you're like me, it took months to recuperate from the Christmas bustle and stress. Did Valentine's Day even happen? Now it's time for Easter? How can that be? My kids love Easter. They enjoy the egg hunts and the candy. But their hearts are in it for the real reason. And because of that I don't just … Continue reading Themed Book Baskets for Easter

The BFG became an immediate favorite of mine while I read it to the class I student taught. To say Roald Dahl has talent would be an understatement. So, it was a no-brainer that I would read it to my own kids. But, what prompted me to read it to them now is the performance of it … Continue reading The BFG

Trumpet of the Swan

January 11, 2016January 20, 2016 ~ moriahhamm ~ Leave a comment

My oldest child (let’s call him Mr. M) loves to read! I mean, he has actual panic attacks if he can’t bring a book in the car with him. He sleeps between stacks of books on his bed. He cries if we have to postpone library visits. It’s crazy! But, as an anxious child, he … Continue reading Trumpet of the Swan

Kid Lit Love

January 11, 2016January 20, 2016 ~ moriahhamm ~ Leave a comment

I’ve met many people who love books. Moms at the playground who can talk for hours about the latest New York Times Best Sellers or the popular series that they lose sleep over in order to finish. Former English majors who still find themselves lost in the works of Austen and can debate with you … Continue reading Kid Lit Love
