I love reading to our children. It is amazing how a book brings in a 'presence' that calms a PMSing mama or an upset child. Here are some great quotes about reading I enjoyed this AM."Today a reader,
Tomorrow a leader."
~ Margaret Fuller ~
When I was about eight, I decided that the most wonderful thing, next to a human being, was a book. ~ Margaret Walker ~
I would be most content if my children grew up to be the kind of people who think decorating consists mostly of building enough bookshelves. ~Anna Quindlen ~
No entertainment is so cheap as reading, nor any pleasure so lasting.
Tomorrow a leader."

There is no substitute for books in the life of a child. ~ Mary Ellen Chase ~
A room without books is like a body without a soul. ~ Marcus T. Cicero ~
Never judge a book by its movie. ~ J. W. Eagan ~
Books are not men and yet they stay alive.~ Stephen Vincent Benet ~
Books are not made for furniture,but there is nothing else
that so beautifully furnishes a house.~ Henry Ward Beecher ~
What are you reading to your children?
