Sofia's reading

Sofia's reading continues to amaze us.  She is reading chapter books.  She wanted to read a Beverly Cleary Ramona book and so we decided to let her give it a try.  She did great with it and got about half way through the book but found it a bit boring.  Since we had bought her another book already we decided to let her stop reading Ramona and try a new book.  I'm glad we did becuase the book we bought her was "Storm the Lighting Fairy" and she loved it.  It is part of a series of books called Rainbow Magic.  She is now on her third book from this series of books and is reading about one book a month.  The books are about 70-80 pages long and she reads it when she gets home from school.  She still likes to be read to though so at bed time Jason and I read other books to the girls.  I'm thrilled that Sofia really seems to enjoy reading.  She is already asking to read in bed with a bed side table to put her book on and to have a lamp.  As the girls are currently sharing a room it isn't possible but maybe when she is a little bit older we will give them each their own room so Sofia can read to herself before she goes to sleep.
