Looking to maybe cozy up with some good books for your little ones this winter season? Let me share a few releases that are perfect for kids to keep them engaged and love of reading. 

Winter Ideas:
 

Scooter the bird has always wanted to fly around and use words to help others just like his favorite author, Wendell. The only problem is that he can’t fly, so he uses a scooter. Bully bird Squawk teases him and the other birds. “Are you even a bird?” Squawk says meanly to Scooter. And Scooter knows how much words can hurt, so he takes some advice from Wendell’s book and decides to stand up to Squawk and help his friends—by using positive words! One day when Scooter finds himself in a dangerous situation, to his surprise it’s Squawk who offers words that help him. Knowing the power of positive words, Scooter makes a friendly offer to Squawk that hopefully will get Squawk to change his bullying ways.

Christmas Ideas:

Christmas at Nana’s House

Christmas is one of the most special times of the year for the young narrator and her brother—and it’s even more special when they spend it with Nana and Grandpa! The children help to shovel the snow on the sidewalk in front of Nana and Grandpa’s house, where they admire the colorful Christmas lights on the house and the icicles on the roof’s edges. They spend time making a snowman, and then when they get too cold, it’s time to go inside and sit by the fireplace drinking hot chocolate. Grandpa shows the children his train that runs around the Christmas tree, and then everyone sits down to enjoy a delicious Christmas feast. The children help Nana make special Christmas cookies, and they leave out a few for Santa with a glass of milk. And before they go to bed so that Santa can visit, the children listen to Nana and Grandpa read a favorite Christmas story.
