Josh is busy all right but more than anything, the kid has his nose buried in a book all the time. Since school has started (5 weeks ago) these are the books Josh has read. (OK a couple he may have read just before school started, but seriously, he is always reading).
Plus, he's read a few that he got from school that we don't own. Some of these books he has read more than once (all of the Artemis Fowl books are re-reads). We spend way too much money on books, but they just don't go to waste because Josh loves them.
A couple of weeks ago I took him to Half Price Books and spent almost $60 on used books (11 books total) and Josh had a permagrin on his face for the entire day. He was in heaven. It was all he could talk about.
His "most valuable treasure in the world" as he has said, is a signed copy of the last Fablehaven book. His friend got it for him for his birthday and it says "Hi Josh" in it. He loves to show it off.
How can anyone not love this kid?

I love that he loves to read! I am still holding out for one of my twins to have that passion!
