Welcome to…
An online community of mothers who read for themselves and to their children. This is a space to connect with other book loving families, seek out and recommend read alouds and read alones, and take a peep inside the reading lives of other Mother Readers the world over.
A little about this mother…
I’m Stephanie, the creator of Mother Reader, a mother myself of two children aged 5 and 3. My husband and I are creative souls, he is a musician, I am writer, and we home educate our kids. Our family of bookworms live on the Mornington Peninsula, Bunurong Country, at the bottom of mainland Australia. We live in a small house in a semi-rural neighbourhood not far from the beach where we are surrounded by towering gum trees and our bountiful edible garden which includes a micro-orchard, many raised veggie beds, perennial herbs, flowers and five cheeky chooks. Books and stories are naturally woven into the fabric of our days and lives.

As well as monthly reading round ups and general bookish chat, I would love to showcase the reading habits, rhythms and recommendations of other Mother Readers with the Portrait of a Mother Reader series.
If you would like to be featured and divulge the ins and outs of your own reading life, please email splendidtobe@gmail.com
