Profile: Hello, my name is Paul. I'm a DBA/Web programmer by day, and a wannabe fiction writer at night. In addition to that, I'm father to a beautiful 23 month old little girl. Ever since the first day we brought our daughter home from the hospital, we have been reading to her, starting with The Going to Bed Book by Saundra Boynton and the classic Goodnight Moon by Margaret Wise Brown up to whatever Blue's Clues book we can find at the library. Reading is a big part of our life. Each week, I hope to share that with all of you. Books will be rated on a scale of 1 Sippy Cup to 5 Sippy Cups, based on my opinion of the book, weighed heavily with my daughter's opinion on the book.
