Last time Amber and I talked she taught me the concept of literature being "mirrors and windows." That means the gift we get through books is our own experiences reflected(mirrors), but they also allow us to peek into someone else's world (windows). Viewing books this way has made me better balance the selections I'm choosing to read, so they feel like they belong, but also develop empathy! 

 I noticed you've featured in your work "mirrors and windows" again but now you've also added "sliding glass doors!" Tell me about that! 

Your newest project is a whole book full of book recommendations! How has reading become such an important piece of your family's life? 

How do you choose books for your kids? Do you primarily stick to books that focus on joy, or sometimes hard history too? 

How do you decide when a kid is old enough to be exposed to a hard topic? 

How have you made sure the books you use in homeschool don't fall down a particular rabbit hole and spread a wide feast?
