I am determined to make books a part of my kids' lives. It gets hard when life get so busy, and I'm the first to admit I'm not very good about regular story time. But with the new school year approaching, it's time for new routines. 

Ting can read to herself now (yippie), but Bug still needs Mommy for story time. But his attention span is pretty short, and he mostly just wants fun pictures to look at. Thankfully, the Read and Share 5 Minute Bible Stories has become the perfect bedtime book for us.

This book is full of all those Bible stories that you remember as a kid - plus some you have probably long forgotten about. The stories are told in very quick segments (think 10 sentences or less), and are spread on two pages. Each page has really fun illustrations to go along with the story.

Bug is pretty content to just sit around looking at the pictures and making up his own stories. But when bedtime does roll around, we are able to read a story and talk about it (and the pictures) in five minutes or less.
