Reading Time

Well, as a teacher, I envision that Dinky Aeisyah will be a reader when she grows up. But if I don't encourage her or read to her, how can she becomes one. Hence, I've been trying to buy her at least a book a month. Right now I'm concentrating on buying board books first. When Dinky Aeisyah reach the "can not tear any paper I encounter" phase, then I'll upgrade her to a picture book. Well, a good board book will cost you around RM 30 and above. It's not cheap but to me it's an investment for my child. A Grolier salesperson once gave his opinion on my decision on not buying his books because I want to keep my option open on those great books in the market.

"Madam, if you want to buy those books, one by one, it will take ages just to build up your own little library."

Well, I don't mind at all, because I'm determine that Dinky Aeisyah should be exposed to different types of writing of different writer.

Here, Dinky Aeisyah is reading, flipping and looking exactly, her Rod Campell's Dear Zoo. I bought it at the Borders sale. It comes with a jigsaw puzzle set. Purrfect!

Geeting cheeky with all the flaps in the book

Dinky Aeisyah apparently has a habit of smelling her book. A habit that Mr Vediaz and I share.

I happened to come across this blog that focusing on reviews on a lot of children books. A very dedicated blog on books. Run by two moms who are a reader themselves, they write books that they munchkins read on Sundays, books to teach on certain concept such as 'death' and so on. Such a great blog!
