Family Literacy Day and Reading in Pictures

I recently attended the Usborne Books at Home national conference in Calgary. (Check out this pic of me with Peter Usborne, Jenny Tyler, and more on my Facebook Page.) What a blast! I got to hang out with the movers and shakers of the company and learn from the most successful consultants. I also came away with a lot of concrete information on how to move my business forward.

At our awards celebration, we watched a slide show of photos related to Usborne. I kept meaning to send in some pictures, but I never got around to it. While watching the show, I kept thinking how I have so many pictures I’d like to share.

So I’ve decided to join the “Wordless Wednesday” gang and start posting an Usborne picture every Wednesday. I’ll kick it off today (even though it’s not yet Wednesday), in honour of Family Literacy Day. Here’s a pic of my 5yo reading to his 3yo brother.

Calling all potential Consultants!

If you’re considering becoming an Usborne consultant, this is a good way to learn more about how it works and what it could mean to you.
