Reading River

Reading River is about bringing back the art of bedtime storytelling, encouraging kids to become listeners while activating their imagination.

This is a powerful story that reminds us what unconditional love is - loving and accepting others for who they are, all their quirks, and even the things that fall short of perfect. At the same time, I think we all want someone to take us for who we are, and love us despite all our faults and failures, even for just a little while.

Hi, everyone! Here begins the first of, hopefully many readings of children's bedtime stories. Because screens play a big part of our lives, and we still don't fully understand the effects of blue light or WiFi on our kids' brains, I thought it would be a good change to get rid of screens and simply listen to stories like many before us. Enjoy!
