Text of the page (random words):
t will show them what it looks like when a book truly has a profound effect on a person when a book is treasured and loved and who knows they may surprise you books that suit their personality this may be hard to hear but if your kids love talking about farts burps and boogers you should buy them some books about farts burps and boogers that doesn t mean that you should only let them read about what they want but if you really want your child to enjoy reading they have to know that their interests are represented in the books they read even if those interests are completely incomprehensible reading only one kind of book is boring poetry i know a lot of adults who don t enjoy reading poetry personally but i can t stress enough how powerful poetry can be for young readers if normal prose is a volvo poetry is a lamborghini it takes language floors the accelerator and really shows you what words can do poets like dr seuss and shel silverstein teach kids that when assembled correctly even in ways that don t seem to make sense words can make a person feel a ridiculously deep range of emotions and kids love that read the rest of the post 10 comments the under appreciated art of bedtime reading by tom b april 2nd is international children s book day an annual event that celebrates reading literacy and the million and a half wonderful things about children s literature so as i was trying to think of something to say on the topic that i haven t already said i kept coming back to one recurring thought i love reading in bed i do i really do normally when we read in bed we re both in our pajamas and firmly tucked in but we don t invite photographers to those events i don t think beds get enough credit from the publishing industry they are the ideal environments for reading particularly for reading with your kids case in point there s a new start up company in new york casper which sells mattresses made of latex and memory foam a friend has one and digs it but the thing that i love about this company that is they not only send you your bed but with each mattress they send you a book to read in your new bed and you can sign up for email bedtime reading updates on their site too they know that their mattresses have more than one use i think that s genius i mean i know that s ultimately just a marketing campaign but it s a great one why don t more people market books and beds together beds and books should always be seen as symbiotic entities yes my kid reads everywhere at the breakfast table on the toilet on a shelf in one of our closets that she calls her reading nook reading isn t only for bedtime but some of our best most memorable reading moments have occurred in bed when i bought the final harry potter book the morning it was released i retreated into our guest room sprawled out on the bed and only came out for bathroom breaks and to loudly annoy my wife with comments like oh my god you wouldn t believe who just died when i was first introducing our infant daughter to books we started in our rocker next to the crib which was intimate and amazing but i still remember the day she got her first big girl bed and i could finally squeeze into it with her and read a pile of our favorite picture books until i could feel her fall asleep on my right shoulder her side of the bed is right mine is left no idea why but we never deviate my daughter has been introduced to hogwarts narnia oz and thousands of other precious literary landscapes in her little twin bed with a hodgepodge pile of pillows behind us her discounted muppets sheets from target below us and her fire engine red ikea desk lamp next to us giving us just enough mood lighting to always try for one chapter more you ll see a lot of talk online about the importance of creating safe reading spaces for kids and i couldn t agree more kids needs places where they really feel comfortable to curl up with a good book and let themselves explore but personally i think beds are often overlooked as reading spaces which is a shame not only are beds comfortable sometimes they re too comfortable and you do more sleeping than reading i get that criticism but they also represent these inviting safe places where we spend almost a quarter of our lives we re open in bed we relax in bed we let our guards down in bed those are just a few of the reasons why bedtime reading with your kids is so important it s that symbiotic relationship between bed and books lying in bed can make you more open to the ideas images and emotions of a book but the right book can also act as the perfect guide into a really restful night of sleep the rhythms of reading are soothing they can both expand your mind and relax it reading in bed can either give you a mental workout that knocks you out or it can give you a mental massage that lulls you into a deep deep sleep i will say that without a doubt my daughter always always sleeps better if we read to her before bed so for international children s book day here s what i want you to do grab a children s book an old favorite and read it in bed tonight if you have kids great revisit a classic with them and enjoy the togetherness if you don t have kids no big deal find one of your childhood favorites and just try to lose yourself in the images and cadences and the memories of reading in your pajamas oh and if you are a parent make sure that your kid has enough pillows a good bed side lamp and a flashlight so they can keep reading long after you told them to stop some things are more important than sleep what if you can t think of a good book to read at bedtime fair question here are a few of my favorite bedtime kids books some are soothing some are beautiful some are uproariously funny and actually wake your kid up which sounds counter productive which it is but it s a whole lot of fun too read the rest of the post 3 comments star wars head to head and the importance of inspiring debate with young readers by tom b oh the things your child will bring home from school i just had a 20 minute conversation with my daughter about who would win in a fight between darth vader and yoda and it was honest to god part of her homework let s give it up for public schools nerds the debate was inspired by a book called star wars head to head the 30 wildest matchups you ve never seen by pablo hidalgo and i m not sure if i want to throw the book in the garbage or give it a teen movie style slow clap to acknowledge it as a subversive masterpiece my daughter is in first grade and her class has a daily homework reading program called book in a bag every day she comes home with a new book in a bag that she s supposed to read with us that night after she reads it on her own we have to decide if the book was easy just right or hard for her to read and fill out an attached form it s a good concept though the books my daughter brings home sometimes can leave a lot of be desired occasionally she ll bring home a familiar gem the princess and the pizza but often she s bringing home phonics focused easy readers that are way too easy for her or she s bringing home media tie in books my little pony star wars etc that just seem designed to lure kids away from legitimate works of literature or at least that s how it feels sometimes said the grumpy dad with his own kid lit blog but i totally understand why my daughter s teacher includes those titles in the book in a bag program yes they might not be well written but the kids love them they gravitate towards those books and since those titles appeal to their basest lizard brain impulses they feel a sense of ownership when they pick them out and get excited about reading them i get it most of them suck but i get it they re dessert reading and every kid is entitled to dessert occasionally right just not all the time dessert all the time just leads to sloth rot and general queasiness so if my kid comes home with a star wars book from school it s no big deal provided that she realizes that we re reading shel silverstein or maurice sendak at bedtime to balance out her diet i refuse to acknowledge the validity of this duel that being said we actually had a very fun time going through star wars head to head the 30 wildest matchups you ve never seen last night granted it s not the easiest book for a kid to read on their own each page is set up as stats page for various characters and vehicles so there s a lot of small type metadata for kids to sort through did you know that darth vader s height weight is 2 02 meters 136 kilograms i do now however the concept of the book is extremely easy to grasp on each two page spread two characters or vehicles are featured and the book essentially asks the question between these two contestants who would win in a fight yoda vs vader obi wan vs boba fett luke vs anakin jawa vs ewok star destroyer vs trade federation battleship and as much as i hate to admit this that simple concept inspired a night of very entertaining very detailed theoretical debate between my daughter and i a result that i wasn t expecting at all ok billy dee williams should be legitimately upset about this maybe i m just used to the normal kid s book media tie in methodology where the book just clumsily retells a story that was previously told better in another medium but at its core star wars head to head has an infinitely more engaging mission it s a book designed to be a discussion starter yes it s filled with clumsy instruction manual esque prose and photoshopped artwork but every two page spread is actually asking its reader a question which one would you pick and that one simple question turns those readers into active participants with the book read the rest of the post 8 comments photographic proof that detroit is the home of ilvermorny j k rowling s north american wizard school updated by tom b i ve got big news for harry potter fans some of you may have read my earlier post why detroit is the perfect home for ilvermorny which collected my arguments for why i thought that the motor city would make an ideal location for j k rowling s recently announced north american wizarding school well my daughter and i were so eager to get our theory confirmed that we took a drive down to detroit to see if we could find any evidence of ilvermorny and guess what we found it you could see ilvermorny all over the motown and we had a terrific time checking out the classrooms the library the great hall what a school i posted the first batch of our ilvermorny pictures on my instagram account and i ve collected some of the best ones below i have even more to share so keep checking back to see more snapshots from our amazing school visit you can read more of my ilvermorny theories and tweets if you follow the ilvermorny hashtag on twitter and fellow detroiters if you have additional photographic evidence that ilvermorny is in fact in our beloved city please share links to the pictures in the comments below i know the official announcement of ilvermorny s location hasn t been made yet but i am really proud to see so much evidence of the noble wizarding tradition in my hometown i think detroit would be and is a great home for ilvermorny we have photographic proof that detroit is the home of ilvermorny jk rowling s recently announced north american wizard school we visited the campus of ilvermorny today and it was amazing here s the main building cleverly disguised from muggles and we have a lot more to share harrypotter ilvermorny

pottermore a photo posted by tom b buildingalibrary on feb 5 2016 at 6 12pm pst read the rest of the post 5 comments why detroit is the perfect home for ilvermorny j k rowling s north american wizarding school by tom b it looks like detroit architecture to me last week pottermore the official website for all things harry potter announced the existence of four previously unmentioned international wizarding schools we learned about the brazilian school of castelobruxo africa s esteemed uagadou school and japan s magical academy mahoutokoro all with new descriptions penned by j k rowling herself we also learned the name of the long awaited north american wizarding school ilvermorny though pottermore hasn t released rowling s description of the school or the school s location yet all we got was a name and an illustration of the school shrouded in clouds hovering above the great lakes region and as an impatient fanboy that got me excited because i m from the great lakes region specifically i m from detroit one of the most notorious and misunderstood cities in north america and i personally think that detroit would make a tremendous home for ilvermorny i really do i think that wizarding academy has been here all along j k rowling might prove me wrong in a few days but in the meantime i took to twitter today to make my case for why detroit would be the idea home
