There are so many good ones out there now (I've been exploring them myself this past year) and they are an easier way to practice English - and fun, too!<br /><br />Start reading to your kids today! It's never too early. Two book bloggers I've become virtual friends with started reading to their sons when they were born! lol There are so many great books for even babies and toddlers.<br /><br />Nice getting to know you :)Sue Jacksonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14532098225905355332noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-22461753.post-57444438814779423582015-09-17T12:29:02.900-04:002015-09-17T12:29:02.900-04:00I'm sorry you've been having a rough time....I'm sorry you've been having a rough time.

English isn't my husband's first language, but he read a lot of Chinese graphic novels when he was young, and I'm trying to get him to read more now. He wants to improve his English, so he's reading English books, but going slowly. <br /><br />It's great and I'm proud of him, but I don't get to share many good books with him because I read way too fast for him to catch up with me.

But we have one son who is also an avid reader and another one who see reading as evil! lol He enjoyed some reading when he was younger but now he only reads what is absolutely required for school. I am hoping he'll come around again when he is older.<br /><br />BTW, we read aloud to our sons until they were in their teens and they loved it!Sue Jacksonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14532098225905355332noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-22461753.post-44146904827012753722015-09-16T13:06:13.369-04:002015-09-16T13:06:13.369-04:00How perfect!
