Recently, my 4 1/2 year old and I started a new chapter book series, Katie & Kimble, by Author Linda Thieman. We are in the process of reading Katie & Kimble: A Ghost Story and although she cannot yet read (the chapter book series is recommended for ages 7-10), Milla has no problem keeping up with the book as I read to her! Every night we read one chapter and she uses her imagination while I read. Not only is Katie & Kimble: A Ghost Story a fun read, it allows Milla and I to have some precious time together every night, before bed. She makes a point every night to bring me the book and curiously awaits the next adventure!

What Moms and Kids Are Saying about Katie & Kimble
The Homeschool Messenger
“…It is 106 pages of pure fictional fun! Don’t let the Ghost Story title keep your young ones from reading the book. It isn’t a scary book! Katie moves to a new town with her family and discovers a kindred spirit! She goes on a quest that is engaging and heartfelt!”
Café of Dreams
“a magical feeling”
The Post-it Place
“…a book that will keep children engaged and wanting to know more. It isn’t frightening at all, so no worries that your child won’t be able to sleep at night; it is just fun, excitement and a little suspense.”

“I recommend this fabulously written book to all children ages 7-10!”
