On a recent trip to London, England my husband and I were hosted by long-time friends with their three lovely children. We truly enjoyed our time with them in their beautiful home as we devoured the generous and delicious meals they made. Although I was missing my son who we left with my parents, I was kept occupied with the great company of Sebastian (age 11), Linnea (age 5), and Nicholas (age 6) who had quite a collection of books.
It really is interesting to see what kids are reading in different parts of the world. Here are a few current favorites in this London household:
Joan Procter Dragon Doctor is based on the true life of Joan Beauchamp Procter, a British zoologist. It’s an empowering and inspirational story recommended for little ones ages 4-8. Curiosity and a passion for what others thought of as odd only led to great achievements for Joan.
I hope some of these recommendations will find their way to your home too. Happy Reading!
