    My daughter and I are reading the wayside story books! They were some of my favorites as a kid and there’s a new one!

    I can relate so much! Great job going over a year!
    I feel like I obsessed so much over scrolling book outlet when I first found it. Since the inventory was constantly changing I was afraid of missing out on the good ones. And made way too many orders to keep up with reading. 😂 I took a good long break too.
    Although I do find read alouds enjoyable I have found it tricky for my family to stay engaged listening. I found the best way for us was to snuggle and read at bedtime. They are most excited to sit and listen well then. Even if it was a literature book for a subject like history, I usually save it for then!

      Yes! I spent so much time just scrolling through the "new" section and anything that looked good, I added to my cart. Now, my purchases will be intentional and thought out (with maybe the occasional "this looks good" 😅),
      That's a great idea! I'm glad you found something that works best for you and your kiddos!

    We read Vanderbeekers book 1 this past year and loved it. Hope you enjoy, too!!!!

      I'm late to the party, but I'll get there! 😂

    At one point I had over 600 books! I finally decided enough was enough and sold off a ton! Now I am using that money to "smartly" by used books for our shelves, more tailored to my kids interests, instead of just having books to have them.

      Great job! Sometimes we just have to step back and reassess!

    I'm watching this 5 minutes after I made a completely unnecessary thriftbooks order 😬. It felt like gluttony. Perhaps I'll set a challenge for myself not to buy anything homeschool related until after Christmas (I don't think I can go a whole year). The Wind in the Willows was a very heavy book for us. Did you get an abridged copy?

      It can be hard to resist the temptation, but that sounds like a great goal! Yes, I did get an abridged version.
