Must-Read Children's Books

3/24/2022

0 Comments

 
I am a self-proclaimed book snob. There. I said it. When I go to the library with my kids, I get so frustrated trying to weed through all of the children's books that are astonishingly bad. Part of me feels guilty typing those words because I realize, as a children's book author myself, that someone's heart and soul went into writing some of these books that make me cringe. On that note, I never intend to write book reviews about the titles I dislike. Instead, I want to celebrate the books that my kids and I love to read!
