*****POST #2 *****MY KIDS' FAVES*****

For your first peek into what Usborne Books and More has to offer, I am going to share the 4 reasons I got hooked on Usborne.  Their names are Kambree, Cody, Hallie, and Briggs. They are my children. I want them to love reading. I want them to be successful at reading. 
BRIGGS (4) - These are his two faves.  "Nibbles" is just adorable.  And "All Better" is so dang cute. These animals need band-aids throughout the book, and he gets to stick the matching band-aids on the animals throughout the story. A-DOR-ABLE.
HALLIE (6) - THIS is why I LOVE USBORNE. She is my biggest success. Hallie was done reading the "I Can Read" books, but wanted to be a big girl and read chapter books. But the "Magic Treehouse" series we had on the shelf was wayyyy over her head.  And that's when I was invited to my first Usborne party. And it changed my life. Forever.  The "Billie B Brown" series (15 books total) was recommended for Hallie.  I bought the entire series and it was the best $59.99 I've ever spent (individual books are $4.99 but I'm a sucker for a deal, so I bought the entire series and saved $1 a book). Hallie gobbled them up! Each book has 4 chapters, each 12 pages long, for a total of 48 pages. Huge font size. Pictures on every page. Outcome: success and confidence!!!! (And there is an entire "Hey Jack" series for boys!!!)
CODY (9) - My reluctant reader. Bright, bright kid. But would rather be doing anything other than reading.  Had zero interest in fantasy like all of his friends. Didn't want to read "Harry Potter" or "Percy Jackson."  So I got him the "Conspiracy 365" series (12 books total). He loves them! They are shorter than something like "Harry Potter," and therefore not as intimidating. Fiction, but real life scenarios. Suspenseful!  And by the way.....since he became a fan of reading, he has started reading "Harry Potter" AND "Percy Jackson!"
KAMBREE (11) - My bookworm! Loves to read. Isn't hard to please. She is currently reading "The Impossible Quest" series (total of 5 books).  Fiction and much like Harry Potter, but not quite as long or scary. 
I LOVE USBORNE!!!! 😍😍
