Online Children's Books! How Neat!

This past week I've been living without a computer. My computer decided to take a nap last Thursday and never woke up! Needless to say, it's been difficult finding ways to check emails, write to friends on facebook, and most importantly update this blog! But where there is a will- there is a way, which is how I find myself updating the blog in the journalism building. Since you are able to read this post via your own computer I thought I would send you some children's books that can also be found on the Internet, FREE. (One of my favorite words!)

The website I recommend is http://www.magickeys.com/books/ and has many great tools for reading. Books for various ages, fun activities, and a read-aloud feature for some stories. Here's some of the fun books I found:

Little Miss Mary and the Big Monster Makeover
by: by G.G. Toropov and Cleone Cassidy
Summary: Is trendy Little Miss Mary ready to make over a monster?

I have a soft spot for this next story, it's about a bear who has a funny name! We Picklesimers deal with this name game all of the time!

Wolstencroft the Bear
by: Karen Lewis
Summary: Wolstencroft wants a home for his own, but thinks that his name is holding him back. Will he find someone to love him, strange name and all?

Also check out their sister site for all of your child's phonics needs. Games, puzzles, all fun and phonics. http://www.magickeys.com/books/phonics.html
