Peek Inside our Bookshelves!

All of our stories begin at home, and we’re reading (and writing) our way to lifelong learning, early literacy, creative problem solving, and cuddled up coziness. It all starts with a good book!

Do your bookshelves bring joy?

Bookshelves should practically scream at kids to come and take a look, not make them (or you!) want to run and hide. If they are too full, pass on unloved titles to let them breathe. Try arranging them by color and kids will want to dive right in!
Let's cultivate a library your readers will love.

Let's learn!

Books are one of the BEST tools for opening the world up to our little learners and Usborne Books & More offer nonfiction that makes learning really fun! Join me for free resources, activities, and fun in my book lover’s group!

I'm Melissa!

I love books. Like, really love them. As an avid early reader turned literature major, that love runs deep. Now I get to share that with our kids and help others find the perfect books for their family and it’s one of favorite gigs ever! 

Hang out at home!

When I’m not reading, I’m probably dreaming and designing. Home matters! We can create a home we love, no matter your budget, skill level, or design style. We’re creating our happily ever after here–join us!

Reading matters!

Did you know that reading is the single biggest predictor of a high academic achievement? Even when school and life feel overwhelming and hard, it’s not about the right curriculum, the best computer programs, or being a trained teacher. We can significantly impact our kids’ futures by simply taking the time to read with them every night (and day!) Even just one book a day will get 290,000 more words into your kids’ brains by age 5! And don’t stop when your child learns to read! They still need that time together with you in the pages of a good book!

Our home is filled with books...is yours?

Could your bookshelves use a refresh? It’s super easy to host an online book pop up to earn free and discounted books to fill your shelves with some love! Most of my hosts earn over $100 in rewards…talk about an amazing bookshelf makeover, right??
