Janet's Books Read in 2011

On the Banks of Plum Creek, by Laura Ingalls Wilder

I had never read the entire Laura Ingalls Wilder series and neither had Kate. So when school began this year, we decided to read the series. She has insomnia, so I decided, for the most part, I would read to her when she went to bed each night. This is the 4th book in the series and we finished it in early January. Although it's not on my reading list, I love it that my almost-13 year old wants me to read with her every night. I figure in a short time she will consider me a dork and not want me in her room, much less reading Laura Ingalls Wilder with her. Hopefully, it will create a memory for both of us (definitely me). And it just might be the only way I read 2 books a month this year!
