Double Take Tuesday: Lollipop Book Club

Bookmark and Share
The folks over at The Lollipop Book Club offer a unique gift idea for children ages 2-12. You can send a child the gift of a good book and sweet treat by selecting a single gift, 3 month, 6 month, or 12 month package in either paperback or hardcover. The books can be selected from a wide range of authors, including:
Caldecott Medal Winners
Newbery Medal Winners
Parents' Choice Award Winners

This is such a terrific gift. The kiddos look forward to receiving their book every month and using the lollipop as a reward for reading the book (either alone or aloud with you) is a pretty wonderful idea. This would make a fun and educational gift for your child(ren), nieces, nephews, or grandchildren! Give Lollipop Book Club a peek!

Growing up, what was YOUR favorite book?
For me, it was either 'Dandelion Cottage' or 'Little Women.'
I read 'Dandelion Cottage' when I was 10 years old. I had checked it out of the limited library our teeny Christian school had and I fell in love with it immediately. Such a cute story for any young girl to read. 'Little Women' was a book we had to read in 5th grade for a book report. I'm so glad that our school was forceful in making us read classic literature. Thanks to that same teeny Christian school, I read so many classic novels that kids in public high schools didn't even read. I read 'Little Men' soon after, but it failed to impress me as much as 'Little Women.'

Great blog! My daughter isn't quite old enough yet for the lollipops but I can't wait until she is!

When I was little I loved Mrs. Pigglewiggle. No one seems to ever remember her! LOL!
