I don't believe I'll need a "week of relaxed reading" but I do need a kick start on my TBR pile! I hope to get at least one review book read & reviewed during the week. I'm assuming, but will double check, that by children's books, she means picture books, early readers, and beginning chapter books.

Will need to do updates (blog and/or Twitter) and a wrap-up post. do not currently have a possibilities list.
