A book at bedtime
It’s always been our tradition at night to say goodnight to mummy, and head off into Indy’s bedroom for some quiet time playing lego, followed by a book, and up until recently this has been a specifically children’s book, with big bright colours and not too many words.
While these are still around the house (with learning to read himself it’s important for us to give him books he has a chance of reading) we’ve started introducing the young chap to novels, and specifically the works of the late, great Terry Pratchett.
It’s been quite lovely to actually have the chap paying attention as we lay there, not looking just at the pictures, but listening attentively to every word of the adventures of Masklin, Grimma, Old Torrit and Granny Morkie. Daddy what did they look like, are they really small, can we pretend to be Gnomes? What is The Thing? Is it a computer? Why is Outside so big? Some of these I can answer, some I cannot, but each is his stepping stone to a wider world.
Let us know what books you loved as a child, or that you’ve loved reading to your children. If you could recommend just one book as a must have, what would it be?
