I chose from a large reading list 19 books i wanted to read and review, and post on my self made Children‘s literature blog. ➡️I will be sharing the link to my blog post for each book I read this semester- if you have time I would love it if y‘all read my formal reviews! 📚 ✍️ 💻

“Lewis Carroll, author of Alice‘s Adventures in Wonderland, actually called stories “love gifts,” which is exactly how children view them.”

CaseyLea This is beautiful. There is nothing I love more than cuddling up with my 5 year old son and reading to him - one of life‘s greatest pleasures! 😊 5y

This Summer, I started my MLIS (Master‘s in Library & Information Studies) degree. I‘m going at a snail‘s pace (one course at a time). My second course, “Children‘s Services & Materials”, started on Monday. I‘m psyched because it‘s the area in which I‘ve been working for the past 10 years & where I want to continue to focus my energy.

I‘ve gotta admit something, though: I totally deny myself these first 4 rights on the reg. 🙈😅

Billypar I'm not great at 1-4 either (and #2 is completely unthinkable). I don't really get #s 1 and 10. Good luck digging into your new courses- they sound interesting! 5y
Riveted_Reader_Melissa Yea... I don‘t believe in #2 either. 😱. Don‘t skip! 😂 5y
Crazeedi I can't remember ever doing number 4 5y

LibrarianRyan Having worked as I children‘s librarian I agree with this list. For me personally I have a problem with a few. 5y
monalyisha @LibrarianRyan Oh, I agree with it professionally. (“Do as I say, not as I do”? 😅) 5y
LibrarianRyan @monalyisha I used to have to argue with parents about #1. So many wanted their kids to read the books they loved and it‘s a hard sell. 5y
tournevis In the original French, you can get gigantic posters with Pennac's list. A large number of libraries have them displayed. 5y
monalyisha @Mystery1 I just noticed that you stacked this book! Wanted to give you a quick heads-up that there‘s actually a 3rd edition (which is what I‘m reading), but Litsy didn‘t have it listed yet. 5y
