Thank you for your donation Bennie Rae Burton!

I am SUPER excited to be partnering with MyMichigan Health Sault for a book drive. My goal is to raise $1,000 that PaperPie will then generously match at 50% so that every baby born in the Soo in the next year will go home with a book. ❤ All three of my kids have been born in the Soo and I am so thankful to be able to give back to the community in this way. I will choose an assortment of adorable board books and your dollar goes even further with the site wide sale happening now. $5 sponsors one baby and $20 sponsors 6. All donations are appreciated! Thanks everyone! Ways to donate are below.

Is your mind blown!? 🤯

By ensuring your child has a strong foundation in pre-reading skills, and by introducing the letters and sounds in a specific order, reading can flow naturally.

The trick is starting at the beginning, ensuring there are no gaps in the foundation, and going nice and slow. ✨

In How Wee Read, we break down learning to read into 4 sections:

📙 Section One (7 Lessons) Phonological Awareness
📙 Section Two (12 Lessons) Letters, Sounds, and Blending
📙 Section Three (5 Lessons) Special Rules
📙 Section Four (36 Lessons) Familiar Readers

Beautiful, playful, and simple. 🧡

Bill Gates reads around 50 books a year.

Elon Musk read two books a day according to his brother. Whenever anyone asks him how he learned to build rockets, he says, 'I read books.

Warren Buffett spends five to six hours a day reading.

Mark Cuban reads for three hours every day.

If people who have so much to do in a day find the time to read, I’m sure we can too.

You don’t lose anything by picking up the habit of reading.
