Now that I have Boyo at my house, my 3-year-old foster son, I have an exciting new way of splitting my TBR. The print reading for me, the audio reading for me, and the print reading for Boyo at bed time. The first time I put him to bed, I decided to try a chapter book. It went swimmingly, and now we’re reading chapter books which is so, so, so, exciting for me. That’s what I’ve been dreaming of doing since I first decided I wanted to be a Mumma.
Here’s the TBR for Boyo and me:
Finish The Mouse & The Motorcycle by Beverly Cleary.
And then read:
The Story of Dr. Dolittle by Hugh Lofting
Chitty-Chitty Bang-Bang by Ian Fleming (Did you know he wrote the Bond novels? True story.)
Dragons of Blueland by Ruth Stiles Gannett
The Fantastic Mr. Fox by Roald Dahl
Stuart Little by E.B. White
For me on audio:
Ozma of Oz (Wizard of Oz Book 3) by L. Frank Baum
Dorothy and the Wizard of the Oz (Wizard of Oz Book 4) by L. Frank Baum
The Beasts of Tarzan by Edgar Rice Burroughs
Emma by Jane Austen (Emma Approved is the new vlog show like The Lizzie Bennett Diaries. tee hee)
The Return of the King by J.R.R. Tolkien
Thank You, Jeeves by P.G. Wodehouse
Of Human Bondage by W. Somerset Maughuam
For me on print:
Conjured by Sarah Beth Durst
The Dream Thieves by Maggie Stiefvater
Antigoddess by Kendare Blake
Fortunately, the Milk by Neil Gaiman
The Real Boy by Anne Ursu
Happy reading to you.

Boyo? What happened to Tiny Pants?
Well I still read to her. But it seems to be a waste to list picture books. Boyo is reading chapter books with me!
