The Things You Can Read welcomes you and thanks you for your readership. We, here at The Things You Can Read, ask your help, if you visit our site regularly, please follow us either via email or Google Friend Connect. Launched on June 7, 2012, our site has already attracted a great deal of attention. One of the goals of the site is to feature reviews of Children's Picture Books, Young Adult novels and Adult Literary Fiction/Nonfiction. A second goal for the blog is to be a resource for teachers of English and writing--with examples of student created writing, writing tips, resource links, and the opportunity to pick the brain of a seasoned English teacher. To spice things up...every now and then, we'll also include random quotes and thoughts on education and life in general, but our ultimate goal is to reach out into the blogosphere and be a "Book Whisperer" and "Writing Whisperer" to children and adults of all ages. Thank you for your readership. Here is to a lifetime filled with reading and writing.

Can't Wait to Read: Louise Loves Art by Kelly Light

Becoming Created by Irene (4 years old) and Lillian Marcella (3 years old)

"For fans of Olivia and Eloise, this stunning debut from Kelly Light is an irresistible story about the importance of creativity in all its forms." GoodReads

The summer months have been ones for creating all kinds of art in our home and at our local Art Museum. We have painted, molded sculptures, and collaged. Needless to say our house is one with several budding artists. I am so excited about the publication of Louise Loves Art and I can't wait to add this one to our growing pile of children's books. With comparisons to Olivia I know this book will live up to the hype. I can't help, but remember what Picasso said, "Every child is an artist. The problem is how to remain an artist once we grow up." It you want to help your little artist stay on his or her own "Artists Way" give Louise Loves Art a read and see if it sparks that creative gene.

Happy Reading☮
