So happy that you were able to share Polo with your kids! My kids' favorite in the series is "Polo and Lily." Beautiful artwork in all the books and such imagination!

I love reading your recommendations each month! Our library didn't have The Adventures of Polo, but I liked the road trip idea, so I snagged a Thrift Books copy for our summer travel!

Is the graphic-novel-that-shall-not-be-named Dog Man? If so: solidarity. 😐

I read The Art of Making Memories, too. (It was a while ago, but, ironically, I don't remember all that well. I think I listened to the audio, too.) Did it include a part about making a memory corner in your house? I incorporated that into our home from one of those types of books. I often catch my kids pulling out the picture books and snuggling up "to remember." I'll have to check the book out again. You have me curious. =)

You know... I can't remember! HA!

What I liked about the book was the intentionality of it -- so often, a good memory happens so serendipitously. His tips seemed helpful for encouraging those serendipitous moments to happen a little more often.
