eorI've been reading a lot of kid books lately. This is not a case of regression. Well, not entirely. It is the coincidence of a couple of influences.
I picked up many books at library booksales recently. This has swelled the piles of unread books to frightening proportions. I'm being quite literal here, there is a distinct possibility of avalanche. Reading lots of small books makes me feel like I'm making some progress at reducing the pile. Plus, I have a better chance of finding a home in the bookshelves for a small book. Add to that the fact that it's summer, weekends are frequently booked, and evenings are much more likely spent in outdoor activities or preparation for outdoor activities. Summer is a good time for light reading. So I'm burning through my kid books like a late afternoon thunderstorm.
Oh, today I read "One Fish, Two Fish, Red Fish, Blue Fish" and "Green Eggs and Ham". I'm not going to add those to this year's count because they're too short. I love them though, they're two of my favorite Dr. Seuss books. Just pure fun.
I'll eventually turn back to books for adults.
