I always feel that we don't do enough reading.... and that I'm not reading enough to both the Prince and Princess..

We generally do 1-2 read aloud books each month and the Princess has a list of 1-3 books for the month to read independently...

I've felt that we were behind all year... until I sat down and looked at the list this week!

I can't believe how much the Princess has read! 

So.... this is our year 4 list.....
