The Reading Journal is where I write musings on life lately, picture book reviews, interviews with fellow creatives and book makers, as well as inspiring bits of literature & imagery I come across. This space is a personal reflection of my curiosities rooted in and expanding beyond books. Welcome.
A decade ago, I wrote about motherhood and children’s literature in a blog called One More Story Told. For now, I transferred a couple of my favorite blog posts over and I’ll slowly recreate this space to share books and reflections. My daughter, Georgia, who inspired that early project is now thirteen years old. She is a few inches away from being taller than me. Georgia loves making art and eating BLTs. Occasionally, you will hear about her too.
If you have a book suggestion to be featured, please share on here.
