Monkey Girl usually can be found with her nose in a book.
She’s perfectly content to read in solitude.
I get it.
However, every now and then, she asks if we can read together.
I read a page, she reads a page, etc.
The other night, she asked if I would pick a book that I really, really love and we could read together.
So, I looked at her books and picked this one.
My Grandma, the librarian, gave me this book when I was a little girl.
She had an original copy.
This book was printed in the 1940’s.
It’s the story of a family of dolls who is owned by a girl named, ready…Big Susan, and they come to life every Christmas Eve.
My Grandma and I would read it together, and the other night, Monkey Girl and I read it together.
It was…
…wonderful.
