Thank you, LibraryThing, for the knowledge that my TBR pile is taller than Niagara Falls. 😬 And for the knowledge that it weighs the same as 21.45 adult badgers. I didn‘t know that I wanted to know that, but I‘m glad that I do know now. As for the 8.68 miles of pages, maybe I‘d rather not think about that.

squirrelbrain That‘s so funny! 🤣 2y
Hooked_on_books The badgers! 😂 And, it‘s almost as tall as the Taj Mahal! I think the real challenge here is to add books to make it taller than the TM! 2y
Amiable This is the best! 😄 2y

BarbaraJean @Hooked_on_books 😂 Or I could go the other direction and try reading it down to a more-manageable (!) Statue of Liberty size? I wonder how many books I need to read to bring the weight down by one badger… 2y

Great picture book about setting a goal and seeing it through.

I can't imagine a time when someone crossing Niagra falls on a tightrope would be anything other than front page news! This is a great book about determination. Love showing kids real-life examples of effort, determination, and taking risks.
