Let’s take a look at some of the best books to read aloud to your son.
If you’re going to read a story to your son, you might as well make it one that is interesting, entertaining, and just plain fun. In short, an awesome book.
Boys especially seem to need something with that “wow” factor to get them engaged in reading.
So here are 23 great books to read aloud to your son. Or sons. Or sons and daughters! Anyone, really, will fall in love with these books as you share an enthralling story together.
While scouring my shelves, memories, and online library for the best in young girl’s literature, I was reminded of these words,
A children’s story that can only be enjoyed by children is not a good children’s story in the slightest.
CS Lewis
With that in mind, here are 23 excellent books to read aloud that will keep you just as passionately enthralled as your daughter.
Each and every one of these will make a wonderful gift. The books themselves are great to unwrap at Christmas or on a birthday, but the greatest gift will be the time you spend together enjoying a marvelous story.
Snuggle up and read!
I hope you consider giving real tools for kids as a creative non-toy gift. Kids love grown-up stuff, from dressing up to helping in the garage or kitchen to just plain ol’ sawing and hammering the tar out of your scrap wood.
Don’t mess around with fake plastic-y things (unless, of course, the child is a toddler or infant. In that case please do only get the fake plastic-y things. I am NOT recommending that you give a real saw to a toddler…. use your judgment!!), as those will never scratch the itch that a kid has to do REAL work.
