Hokanson Family Book Club

Submitted by True and Andrea on Sat, 11/08/2008 - 15:07

I guess this is better late than never. Here is the list for this year's Hokanson Family Book Club. Not all the books or months are set in stone so if you have a different or better suggestion, please let me know. Good luck with this month's. It is a book that I LOVE and the kids will love, too. It would be GOOD to check out a copy and read it. It would be BETTER if you purchased your own and it would be BEST if you wrote and highlighted and made notes in your copy. Look up any words you don't know in the dictionary and write them in. Write down the epiphanies (Ah, hah! moments) you have while reading. You'll be hooked after the first chapter. Let's plan on discussing it when we get toghether for the wedding. Good Luck!
