Have you tried letting Abi choose her books? It might help her feel a little more motivated if she has a special interest in the subject of the book. If you want to make sure she stays on a certain level, you could just give her 3 or 4 choices that you're pre-selected, and let her choose from those.
She also might like writing her own books and reading them back to you. If she can't write full sentences, you could always pre-write parts of it, then let her fill the rest in.
Don't know if that will help, but I hope it does!
Cute blog and family pics. I have a family blog too and also write reviews for homeschool products. :)
