Sometimes it just takes the right book to turn a kid into a reader; and what kid doesn’t like dinosaurs?

Check out these books by the “Dinosaur Lady” who has actually worked on the bones and really knows her stuff.

Great chapter books for ages 7 up with real characters and real dinosaurs. https://rosesiva.com/. Books on amazon and all good book outlets.

Great books for 7-12 year olds!

It is sometimes hard to get your children to be interested in reading. I have discovered through writing quite a few stories myself that the subject needs to be something that draws the attention of a child, sparks an interest, creates a little curiosity.

But how do you keep the attention of a young boy with no real interest in reading?
With farts of course!

Harvey, The Boy Who Couldn't Fart.

Everyone can fart, but not Harvey. No matter how hard Harvey tries, he can't manage even a squeak. A humorous story that will have readers of all ages giggling.
