Books for Kids to Read: A Start to Finish Book Series, Ali Mitgutsch

by Felicia Leave a Comment

Reading Start to Finish Books
Do you have a kid who constantly asks why and how? I do and these are the books I bought her when she was 5.

These books are out of print but I was overjoyed to discover this series when a library was discarding them. I love vintage books!

With over 25 books in the series and title selections like From Clay to Bricks, From Sand to Glass and From Grain to Bread Grain to Breadto chose from, your budding scientist will be able to research his or her answers on their own.

The author presents all the information in a format that young readers can understand. The series was started by Ali Mitgutsch, a German artist and author whose colorful, happy, detailed illustrations appeal to both my 5 and 7 year old.

If you are lucky enough to spot any of his books for $1.00 to $15.00, snap it up, as many of his books can be priced at $50.00 and way beyond.

You can find these books on Amazon but I have never been able to find them in any shops. Go HERE to get your search started.

jill-jarvis-bigkidsmallcity-circle-300 Welcome!  JillBJarvis.com is the go-to blog for things to do in Houston with kids!  It is upbeat and dedicated to making our big city feel small.   START HERE!    

On this website you will find a full list of Houston weekly events, things to do around the city, travel ideas and resources for parents.

I know just what it’s like to be overwhelmed by work, life and family. I spent a lot of years traveling for work, missing big milestones for my kids and feeling bad about everything.

I started this website to make a list of all the events happening around Houston and then pick one to enjoy with my kids. And instead of thinking of all the things I was missing, I started to enjoy the things we were doing together.

If you are a parent that is feeling overwhelmed by all the things you could be doing in Houston… please just use our weekly lists and daily posts as suggestions. Pick one thing to do with your family and intentionally ignore the rest!
