Welcome to Litsy!

I just recently learned that my mom grew up down the street from the couple who wrote these books! I adorned the Frances books as a kid 🥰

This was my favorite when I was a kid! It totally captivated my imagination, and I continued reading it to myself long after the age when picture books were read to me. #SandwichDay #NovemberNarrative @Eggs @Alwaysbeenaloverofbooks

@Bklover thank you very much! Wes was very excited :)

My parents read books to me every night through middle school. One of my favorites was Bread and Jam for Frances. ❤️

2. Cooler weather and good times with friends.

this book has amazing mouth watering drawings. this is a good book to read to children who are picky eaters.

picky eaters and young foodies alike will love this tale of frances the finicky badger who refuses to eat anything but bread and jam, morning noon and night. eventually her parents use reverse psychology to convince frances to eat almost anything

I saw (and read to myself) this book at the library and I was so happy. I loved Frances the badger books as a kid. Unfortunately my son refuses most books that aren‘t spooky, gross, or about fierce creatures. It‘s too bad because he‘s a picky eater and could use the lesson from this story.

3. In bed sleeping and reading...no real difference between now and then

#HeyJune Frances is a picky eater!!! All she wants is bread and jam...she even makes a song about it. So when mommy badger FINALLY allows Frances to eat ONLY bread and jam it‘s #strawberryfieldsforever but...what if a girl sometimes craves good ole meatballs?!!!?

@DebinHawaii, look what I found while cleaning out my mom's garage! It was passed down through three much older siblings before it made its way to me. You can see that it was well loved!

This is hands down my favorite and best loved book from childhood. My parents bought me a copy for my 5th birthday, then again for my 6th because I had worn out my other copy!! #LIBERTHDAY

Happy Birthday @Liberty !!!! 💜📖 📚 😺

Thank you Mom for reading "Bread and Jam for Frances" to me until the cover fell off. What book made you a reader? #reading4life

Day 11 of the #Riotgrams challenge: favorites children's book! I am going with my favorite book when I was a child. I absolutely adored Frances.

And when I got older I learned Russell Hoban is a versatile genius! He also wrote TURTLE DIARY (amazing!), RIDDLEY WALKER (bananapants apocalypsey!), and EMMET OTTER'S JUGBAND CHRISTMAS (!!!!!)! ❤❤❤

After a tiring weekend of...wait for it...errands...we sat around today and didn't do much of anything this evening. Except for make dinner and play Trivial Pursuit on PlayStation. Where does the weekend go these days? 👀Honey lemon garlic salmon, squash medley in light cream sauce, and spring onion risotto. #bookanddinner

Jam on biscuits, jam on toast . . . Anyone else love the Frances books as a kid? Now I love reading them to my son. #childrensbooks #kidlit
