Focused Reading

The Man-Cub is a very focused child - has always been so - he'll become spontaneously interested in something - we sometimes know the inspiration point and sometimes not - then he'll read voraciously on the subject for a while - days or weeks sometimes - these periods of interest sometimes also require the making of costumes and/or models...

The current phase...Frogs...

...we have every frog book in the local library...

  1. I went through phases like that as a kid too... and still do, thought usually it's a specific author. I'm so glad to see kids show an interest in reading! Keep encouraging him. :)

  2. Hi Kristina,

    I do that with authors too - I find one I like and then I read everything he/she wrote...

  3. I'm glad he likes to read, too. He does get very involved in the current interest. That's got to be good. E
