Reading aloud is a treat, and Carole Joy Seid wants us to remember that every time we pick up a book to share with our kids.

In this episode, she is joining us again to talk about the Golden Age of Children’s Literature. Some of these books may be new to you, and some you may have heard of before, but wondered if they would stand the test of time and still make great read-alouds. (Hint: They do!)

You’re going to want to listen carefully – Carole shares tons of great suggestion with her signature enthusiasm from authors like:

  • Lois Lenski
  • the d’Aulaires
  • Howard Pyle and more!

These books will definitely help your family build memories around the moments spent cuddled together reading.
