The Ox-Cart Man

Okay, parents. You know how there are those children's books that you LOVE to read to your child, but your child could care less about that book? (For me, it's The Lorax.) And then you know those other books? The ones your children ask you to read over and over even though it's the dumbest book ever? (Tubby and the Lantern, I'm looking at you!)

Well, our family has happened upon a book that all three of us really enjoy reading over and over. It's called The Ox-Cart Man. It's about a pre-industrial revolution family that works together to grow and make all their own food and supplies and then sells all the extras at the market. It's awesome, and you should read it.

That is all.

Thank you. I love new book ideas for Mabel. I plan on getting her a children's book about Barack Obama for Valentines Day! =)
