    WHAT ARE YOU READING - ROALD DAHL

    Roald Dahl is one of our family’s favorite authors but his material can be controversial with some families. There are themes of magic in several books and we’ve heard in some circles that the treatment of children is too harsh (for example, how Matilda’s parents treat her.) Our son enjoys re-reading the short chapter books of George’s Marvelous Medicine and Fantastic Mr. Fox! Our daughter loved reading Esio Trot and figuring out the little hidden riddle! No spoilers! If you’re new to Dahl, starting with Charlie and the Chocolate Factory is a great introduction to the imagination and fantastical ideas in Dahl’s writings! A book that we feel is overlooked is Danny The Champion of the World. This book sits on my shelf as a Father’s Day gift from RaeAnna and the kids. It is a touching and humorous look at the relationship between Danny and his eccentric father. Dahl was a great writer and like many British authors of his time, included poetry within the novels. Charlie and the Chocolate Factory has some great poems for recitation. RaeAnna loves reciting “Mike Teavee” to our kids!

    The quote we read from Matilda can be found at the end of chapter 7 in the book!

    WHAT ARE YOU READING - ROBERT LAWSON

    Nick and RaeAnna discuss books by Robert Lawson. Ben and Me is a great historical fiction book for ages 7-12 and introduces them to the life of Benjamin Franklin! Check out Lawson’s other works like Ferdinand (illustrator),Mr. Revere and I, and Watchwords of Liberty! What is your favorite Robert Lawson book?

    An interesting side note about Robert Lawson and Munro Leaf, they were friends when Leaf originally hand wrote the story of Ferdinand on a legal pad. Munro Leaf learned about the true story of a peaceful bull named Civilón that was raised on a farm outside Salamanca, Spain in the early 1930s. The story was told that It was pardoned mid-fight and the news of this event made papers, which was then published throughout many parts of Europe. Munro Leaf used this true story as a creative prompt for Robert Lawson. Read more here!
