On Tuesday we had a discussion about children's books.  I emphasized that I know that you are NOT children!  You are adults and all of the reading and assignments we do in class are made for you, adult.  However, many of you have asked me about children's books because you want to be able to read books to your children and grandchildren.  We also discussed the benefits of reading children's books.

  • We can practice our pronunciation
  • We can read these books to our children and grandchildren
  • The stories are exciting and funny
  • The illustrations are often beautiful
  • There is a lot of vocabulary in the stories and the beautiful pictures help us to understand the meanings (instead of translating).

I hope that you all enjoyed reading the books aloud in class and that the were able to see the benefits of reading these books. 

What are some of your favorite books? They can be children's books or even adult books.  Please tell us and include a link to
