Ferdy doesn't really understand World Book Day. He doesn't get why people dress up, or write stories or do craft activities about book characters. Surely World Book Day means only one thing and that is to read books all day.
So this Friday, we celebrated World Book Day the Ferdy way, which basically meant all of us reading books aloud, reading books in our head and listening to audiobooks.
He and Gil agreed to compile a list of all the books that we'd read but we had to stop when I realised Ferdy was reading books in secret so that he didn't have to write them on the list.
Unfortunately though, Gil announced this week (when he told me he was bored and I suggested reading a book) that he is 'not the sort of child that likes books'.. But when we made a cake for Billy's birthday, he did confess that books can have their uses.
P.S. To all our devoted followers, we won't be doing a blog until after the Easter holidays as the boys will be in school on Fridays up until Easter.
