The Octopus
The Octopus | Cynthia Rylant
2 posts | 1 to read
Newbery Medalist Cynthia Rylant brings the peaceful sounds, sights, and characters of the coast vividly to life in the fifth book of the Lighthouse Family series, in which the family explores the shore with an octopus friend. Every once in a while, a full moon shines over the lighthouse and causes the tide to recede. For Cloe the octopus, this turns out to be a wonderful opportunity to explore the world that exists outside of his ocean home. As he embarks on his expedition, he encounters the lighthouse family by the beach and they explore the treasures of the uncovered ocean floor together.

1.) I definitely read several at once. But they are usually different genres. Rarely same genre multiple books.
2.) Most books images... some kidlit or fantasy books are more movie like.
3.) Outside looking in 99% of the time.
4.) Harry Potter. So stereotypical haha. But also, The Penderwicks, Chronicles of Narnia, Little House books, anything by Sharon Creech, everything by Cynthia Rylant. Yep. Etc.

Headinherbooks_27 Seems like Harry Potter is people's top choice today. 6y
SamanthaMarie @nu-bibliophile Not surprising!! I think if you love Harry Potter the next best thing to reading it for the first time is having your kiddos read it for the first time haha. Reliving the magic. 6y
