I'm excited to say that B completed all three of her
Summer Reading Programs as of yesterday. All together, she read THIRTY-TWO books this summer, of varying lengths. We did read Lewis Carroll's ALICE IN WONDERLAND together - I read it aloud, chapter by chapter - but I made her read me the remainder aloud, and she did remarkably. We had her first official Meet the Teacher night last week, and I told both her teachers she can read independently and they both just sort of nodded. All of her teachers have been like that at first - the "yes, everyone thinks their child is a genius" sort of brush off - but give it two weeks and they'll change their tune.
Anyway, photos of my B and her rewards:

It makes me happy to no end to know that this focus we've helped her grow, regarding reading and words and art, will be a lifelong one.
I'm so very proud of my little reader.
