You will never regret reading aloud to your kids…
It’s hard to connect with our kids in today’s busy, noisy world. Reading aloud gives us a chance to be fully present and to connect with our kids in a meaningful way.

Because reading aloud not only has the power to change your family—it has the power to change the world.

Hey there, I’m Sarah
I’m a homeschooling mom of six, and I understand the constant pressure to also do more as a parent. But what if the answer is not more, but rather, better?
I began the Read-Aloud Revival podcast over ten years ago because I saw the way stories shaped and formed my family for the better. Now I’ve made it my life’s work to help families all over the world make meaningful and lasting connections with their kids through books.
I wrote The Read-Aloud Family to offer both heartfelt encouragement and practical guidance for making those very connections.
In addition to The Read-Aloud Family, I’m also the author of Teaching from Rest: A Homeschooler’s Guide to Unshakable Peace.
