When David and I were children Comic books was a huge part of our childhood which is something Charlie hasn’t had much experience with. The other day David and I went into Albertson’s to look at there Halloween Decor while there I went to browse there book section for a book to read this week.
While there I found quite a few Archie Comic books I would like to get David for Christmas. Because this is something David would read showing Charlie he is trying. The more I thought about it though I think I will go back and get all the Comics they have then Charlie and David can read these in Charlie’s Homeschool Reading Class. Would you like to join us for Comic Book Day?
