Books

So like his parents, Oscar is a prodigious reader. He moved on to chapter books at the school library while still in prep, and now in year one he just devours books. We're lucky that the school library is well stocked and appointed - however we still buy him new books of his own every week or two. We try to focus on classics which he can read and re-read over time. However quite a few boy humour books sneak their way in.

Things came to a head a week or so back when we just could not fit any more books on his shelf. So today we did a cull.

I should point out by cull no books were actually thrown away. Younger sister Adelaide is now happily inheriting a stack of books Oscar has moved beyond. He was quite happy to send them on their way. Here's hoping she is as obliging tomorrow when I sort through her baby books!
