Spring is here! Texas usually only gets to enjoy about two weeks of it before it becomes too hot, but it is thoroughly enjoyed while it is here. There are so many fun and educational spring books. I have reviewed my favorite ones. I hope that you find some new spring books that you will be able to enjoy either at home with our own children or in the classroom.
