THE FOOT BOOK

Growing up we had family who poured into our lives. One of our aunts, Evelyn, read to us a lot. We believe that her dedication to early childhood learning gave us an edge in life. Hearing stories that piqued our imagination formed the women we are today. We have read to our own children, nephews, nieces and grandchildren over the years. But, in the midst of a pandemic, two sisters decided to share this joy of stories and reading with children everywhere.

“Our hope is that a busy parent, grandparent, babysitter or teacher will click on our podcast or video…and let us do the reading.”
