❄️ Humphrey Weekend Forecast: Cozy & Full of Chapters!

Families: it’s not too late to jump in, catch up, or even get ahead for next week! Our reading calendar is flexible, and we totally understand how busy life can get.

This cold, snowy weekend is the perfect excuse to slow down, snuggle up, and read together. So far, we’re hearing so much love for Humphrey, and we don’t want anyone to miss out on this special family reading time.

Grab your book, cozy up, and enjoy the adventure together! 💙

📅 Families can always reference the home reading calendar for pacing — but remember, it’s flexible and meant to support your family, not stress it.
