We've finished The Sign of the Beaver, what a fantastic book!

Here is a painting from one of the kids. 

I had a request from the children for our next read aloud. Robinson Crusoe! It was mentioned in the last two read alouds and apparently the kids interest was piqued!  This time, we decided it might be fun to try a book on CD, so mom gets a wee break from reading. Well there are other read alouds, but this is one less. It's been great so far. I have never read it so I am just as tuned in as they are.
