Abrams Summer Book Giveaway! #summerreading




We are taking part of our library's summer reading program this year and my kids are just gobbling up books! I love that we have a local incentive to spark their love. The main thing is they are getting into a life-long habit of summer reading and learning to LOVE it to. I remember my lazy days of summer when I was growing up and all I did was sit outside in the sun and read. It was almost as if reading was my best friend those summers. I traveled the world and learned so many things through those books.



As you know reading starts young. We make sure to shuffle our books in our book bin for my youngest two so that they are exposed to many great books. Abrams generously sent us a whole box of new board books that we've been having a blast reading this month.


 This group of books is really a treasure. From bright colors to far off places like Paris and learning about opposites - we loved them all!

Hello, New York!/Hello, Paris by Christopher Franceschelli - From bestselling author of ABRAMS Block series comes Hello, New York! and HelloParis!, board books about the most visited cities in the world.

Who?  by Robie Harris – The first board book acclaimed children’s book author Robie Harris (It’s Perfectly Normal), Who? explores the relationships babies form with the people and things they love the most. The text’s repetitive verse and melodic voice will captivate babies and toddlers and draw them into the sounds and images of the book.





 Hero vs Villain  illustrated by Alex Eben Meyer – A gently irreverent book of opposites that plays on the popularity of villains and superheroes. Their adversarial relationship makes heroes and villains the perfect stars for a book about opposites. But can sworn enemies learn to be friends?
