A Tale of Two Marshmallows
The September newsletter just arrived with a story about marshmallows and slowing down by Amy L. Sullivan. If you’re thinking, “hey, I didn’t get that newsletter”. . . sign up here and don’t miss another one!)
One of our favorite ways to slow down is by reading together as a family. Some of the editors from our sister site, The High Calling, recently shared their favorite family books:
The Little House Series by Laura Ingalls Wilder recommended by Kelly Sauer
The Chronicles of Narnia by CS Lewis, recommended by Glynn Young
Junie B. Jones by Barbara Park, recommended by Marcus Goodyear
The Eye, The Ear, The Arm by Nancy Farmer, recommended by Deidra Riggs
Shadow Spinner by Susan Fletcher, recommended by Christine Scheller
My Father’s Dragon by Ruth Stiles Gannett, recommended by Charity Singleton
We’ll be sharing more favorites over the coming months, so stay tuned! You can share your favorites over on our Facebook page.
