Most of us have too much on our plates before the busy holiday season begins, right?

And then December hits and we feel behind on, well, sort of everything.

But for homeschoolers, especially for Christian homeschoolers,

December should be the best month of our entire year. That's what Christmas school is for. Christmas school is a whole family

curriculum from read-a-loud revival that helps your family slow down, savor the

season, and wait in joyful hope.

Join thousands of families and replace your normal curriculum

with a month of Christmas school

to make December a different kind of learning in your year,

a better one.

Text the word Christmas to the number 3-3-77,

or head to read aloud revival.com slash Christmas school

to join us. I remember walking into the library when Audrey, my oldest daughter, was about one and thinking,

okay, I want to find a read aloud. I want to find some books to read aloud with her and I look over this see of picture books in the children's section. A very big beautiful children's section in fact and I knew some of these books have to be better than others, but how

am I going to find them? I mean, I knew sometimes I sat down and read aloud and loved every second.

And sometimes when I sat down to read aloud with her,

I thought I was going to poke out my eyeballs.

That set me off on what started as a hobby

and became sort of a life, life of looking for the very best read-a-louds and sharing them with you.

Today on the Read-Aloud Revival podcast, we're going to talk about how we choose books for our book lists. Welcome to the Read Aloud Revival podcast.

I'm your host Sarah McKinsey.
