Announcing the David M. McPhail Virtual Book Club


Virtual Book Club for Kids is a fun way for us to learn about new books and authors each month with our children! Each month we share book-related crafts and activities based on the book we choose to spotlight.   The author we’ve selected for January is….

 David M McPhail   


Have you read any books by David McPhail? If so, which one is your favorite?

We’re took at trip to the library and checked out quite a few plus we had a few at home that are already our favorites which we can’t wait to share with you on January 21.  Here’s are some of our picks that we’d suggest.
