What we’re reading these days

Shari was sitting on the floor with Hannah and Nathanael, reading to them.  For kids that usually can’t sit still for more than 3-4 seconds, they were unusually quiet.  Of course, they’ve both always enjoyed reading.

Shari was reading a book that was quite popular at the preschool where she used to work.  It was written by a lady from Winnipeg and illustrated by a man from Bellville Ontario.  It’s called Too Many Chickens.  So if you’d like to read what the cool kids read, check it out:


As for me, I’m still working my way through some books I’ve been working on for months.  Some books like to be read slowly, to give them time to absorb.  Others like to be read through quickly.

One book I’m really enjoying is Crisis and Hope in Latin America, which is a sweeping survey of religion, politics and culture in Latin America from an evangelical perspective.

I’m also reading The Silmarillion by JRR Tolkien, and still enjoying the Psalms in general.

Here’s a tip from Nathanael – he really enjoyed The World God Made, by Alyce Bergey.

So there you go.  That’s some of what we’re reading these days.
