RAR #45: Our Favorite Picture Books

For Mamas of Older Kids & Teens

Picture books aren’t just for young kids…They’re companions for our children, and they’re powerful tools that we can use to connect with our kids. In this new episode of the Read-Aloud Revival, the whole RAR team gathers to chat up our favorite picture books (and how we use them).

In this episode, you’ll hear:

  • More giggling than usual. (Ahem. Don’t say I didn’t warn you.)
  • Kara liken a particular picture book with a big bowl of macaroni-and-cheese
  • All our favorite picture books
