Monday Recommendations

Monday Recommendation List

Random list of 10 books Monday! I have read and enjoyed each of these enough to flag for a potential personal library purchase.

Be bold and just choose randomly, stick to your normal genre...or step outside of your normal reading zone and try something you usually wouldn’t. You can look up the descriptions at Amazon.com, or search my blog for old posts by entering the title in the little search box in the top left-hand corner and clicking the magnifying glass.

This week-- 10 recommendations (in no particular order):

1. A Pale View of Hills by Kazuo Ishiguro
2. Wuthering Heights by Emily Bronte
3. Perfect Parenting by Elizabeth Pantley
4. Traveling Light by Katrina Kittle
5. The Raven Prince by Elizabeth Hoyt

Perfect Parenting

A good book for parents is “Perfect Parenting” by Elizabeth Pantley. Sometimes parenting books are too strict in the subject matter. "Do this. Don't do that."  Pantley’s book was not like that. It was surprisingly easy to read and very resourceful.

You find an issue you are dealing with in the index, such as backtalk. The section then discusses that particular behavior, how common it is, what may be causing it and then a variety of solutions.

I found some helpful hints and would recommend it to other parents.
