March's Quote and Rhyme from Twiglet...

Books that Ruben and Rachel read.

"Rueben and Rachel had found the secret to learning.  They loved to read and learn about the mysteries of God's universe.  They also enjoyed learning a saying for each month.  At the beginning of each month, Miss Sarah wrote the new saying down on the chalkboard. The wind was blowing outside the schoolroom as she wrote:

March is in, the winds begin."

"Twiglet, the Little Christmas Tree" Chapter III, page 59

The first item I would like to tell you about is the matching book mark for our children's book, "Twiglet" the Little Christmas Tree. "Twiglet" is featured on the front and back of these bookmarks with snowflakes falling around him! Available in both white and ivory.

I personally use this bookmark to mark the place of the current book that I am reading. Bookmarks are smaller than original size.

Reading for Recreation...

Here on Twiglet's blog we love to read when we play, seek amusement or need to relax. Just think about grabbing a good book, finding your favorite chair or reading place and relaxing for several hours!

We need to make reading time a special time to our children and grandchildren. When my boys were growing up, they knew that they could stay up a couple of hours later, if they were reading! Travis would gather a Popular Mechanics or some type of fix-it book and Tony reached for one of the Hardy Boys novels. And after I had my house all clean and everyone taken care of I would grab the latest "Janette Oke" novel and read to my hearts content! Her "Love Comes Softly" Series have been made into movies and are on the Hallmark Channel.

Talk about a stress reliever...having the time to read a little each day helps slow the pace of this worry, scurry, hurry up world. Making sure that you and your children read constructive, uplifting and well written material is very important too! "You are what you read!!!"

Here are some quotes by famous people that I found while researching with the search phrase "you are what you read".

"The man who does not read good books, has no advantage over the man who cannot read them." Mark Twain

"The things I want to know are in books; my best friend is the man who will get me a book I have not read." Abraham Lincoln

"There is more treasure in books than in all the pirates' loot on Treasure Island…and best of all you can enjoy these riches every day of your life." Walt Disney
"In a very real sense, people who have read good literature have lived more than people who cannot, or will not, read…it is not true we have only one life to live; if we can read, we can live as many more lives and as many kinds of lives as we wish."
S.I. Hayakawa

"Master those books you have. Read them thoroughly. Bathe in them until they saturate you. Read and re-read them…digest them…a student will find that his mental constitution is more affected by one book thoroughly mastered than by 20 books he has merely skimmed." Charles Spurgeon
