September 2020 Book Reading List

Chugging along, month after month, reading book after book.

Books I Read to My Children

Books I Read to My Son

Last month I read a whopping thirty different books to my son.

This month I only managed to read twenty-six. Maybe I read less because September is one day shorter than August. Or maybe it’s because my son has become obsessed with a certain book - meaning he wants to read and reread that particular book.

Before I mention which book he’s become obsessed with, let me list the books I read to him in September:

• 1, 2, 3 To The Zoo
• ABC I Love You: A Love Poem from Parent to Child
• B is for Bedtime!
• Baby Touch and Feel Baby Dinosaur
• Bright Baby Colors ABC Numbers
• Digger the Dinosaur and the Cake Mistake
• Does a Kangaroo Have a Mother Too?
• Dora’s Christmas Adventure
• Dr. Seuss’s ABC An Amazing Alphabet Book!
• Elmo’s Favorite Places
• Elmo’s World Puppies!
• Frog in the Kitchen Sink
• God’s Love in my Heart
• Hey Diddle Diddle
• Hug Time
• I Love My Mommy Because…
• I Love You, Dad!
• Love and Kisses
• One Brown Bunny
• One Seal
• Pete the Cat I Love My White Shoes
• Sleep Train
• The Jolly Barnyard
• The Kids’ Picture Show Vehicles
• The Very Quiet Cricket
• Where’s Spot?

Which of these books has he become obsessed with? Pete the Cat I Love My White Shoes.

Here’s a YouTube of the book:

Books I Read to My Daughter

Last month I read fourteen books to my daughter - this month I read sixteen. So, that’s an improvement. She’s too young to become obsessed with an individual book, so it’s easier to read different books to her.

Here are the books I read to her:

• B is for Bedtime!
• Baby Touch and Feel Baby Dinosaur
• Dr. Suess’s ABC An Amazing Alphabet Book!
• Elmo’s Favorite Places
• Good Night New Baby
• Harry the Dirty Dog
• I Love My Daddy Because…
• I Love You, Dad!
• Love and Kisses
• Newtonian Physics for Babies
• One Brown Bunny
• Pete the Cat I Love My White Shoes
• Polar Bear, Polar Bear, What Do You Hear?
• Sleep Train
• The Kids’ Picture Show Vehicles
• The Very Quiet Cricket

The Book I Read for Me

This month I read Effective Java 3rd Edition by Joshua Bloch. And despite the author stating that this “book is not intended to be read from cover to cover” - I read it cover to cover.

The book I’m currently reading… Well, you’ll have to find out next month what it is. I’ll give you three hints:

• It’s fiction.
• It’s from a favorite author I read during my childhood.
• I’m reading it via free Prime Reading.

If you have Amazon Prime, you have Prime Reading. If you don’t have Amazon Prime, well, let me copy-and-paste the following from my January 2019 Book Reading List:

If you don’t have Amazon Prime, you can try Amazon Prime with a 30-Day free trial. There’s also Prime Discounted Monthly Offering if you qualify, as well as a Prime Student 6-month Trial if you have a .edu email address.

Until next month.
