#PB365

Our family reads a lot of picture books. We're a little obsessed and it's not just my four-year-old driving our reading habits. My ten-year-old daughter loves a good story as well and I'm always a sucker for gorgeous art and a funny or heartfelt read.

In the past I've read separate bedtime stories to my kids, one for each of them. Over the Christmas holiday, however, we began reading a single book together each night, snuggled together on the couch. I loved that together-time and it sparked an idea.

Each night in 2015, my kids and I will read a different picture book together. Three-hundred and sixty-five picture books by the end of the year. And because social media is a thing and I'll take any excuse to chat up books with the general public I'm going to tweet the title and a cover picture of each book we read.

If you'd like to follow along with us check out the hashtag #PB365. We'd also love if you want to join in with your own families and take the challenge. Tweet along with us and share which picture books you're reading and which ones you love the best. Maybe we can all discover some new favorites!
