Having a little boy opened my eyes BIG TIME to a world of books we’d been mostly neglecting. Sure, we read a few truck books when Sophie was little, but when Milo came on the scene and his entire world revolves around All Things Vehicle and All Things Construction, we expanded our book choices.

At the end of my last kids’ book post, I asked what you thought of me sharing little “units” you can do with your kids. Lots of you commented, wrote, or messaged me to say you were interested. Yay! With summer upon us, I thought I’d start putting them out there in case (like me)…
