About this episode
Your local library or bookshop (if you’re lucky, both!) is likely filled with children’s books. Many are simply marvelous—the kind of books you don’t mind reading aloud over and over, and that you’re delighted to hand to your kids.
Others? Not so much.
So how do we decide which books to read with our kids?
How do we connect our kids with books they’ll love… especially when we haven’t read most of them?
That’s what today’s episode is all about.
In this episode, you’ll hear:
- What is a good book, anyway?
- How to choose books without a booklist using the 3-Question Test
- How to know when to ditch a book
