Welcome to Litsy!

“There‘s nothing better than a warm den and friends to share it with.”

This book would be a good read aloud when learning about winter animals.

Traditional Literature
Published 2020

The story illustrates the themes of friendship and the joy of sharing. In th e Alaskan winter, Cozy‘s den becomes a warm home as the animals come together to enjoy the winter season. The illustrations capture the cozy atmosphere and the charm of each character‘s personality. Cozy learns the importance of companionship and the warmth that comes from being together during hard times, in this case the winter.

“His mother and father had named him Cozy because his silly coat was so soft and thick”.

This book would be beneficial to younger children who are having trouble getting along with their peers and playing nicely with them. This book could teach them how to interact with others.

Cozy by Jan Brett was published in 2020. It was awarded the Massachusetts Book Award and the Best Children‘s Book of the Year. This story follows a musk ox named Cozy who loses his herd.

“The eyes belonged to a snowy owl, who also had a request.“

I would use this book in my classroom as an early year book to read to the class to show that you can make friends without anyone unexpectedly and be as inviting as you can to others.

Cozy by Jan Brett is an amazing tory about a calf who lost her family and felt lonely in the cold, winter land. As she embarks her journey across the snow mountains, she invites new, unexpected animal friends to join her. Through this journey she made delightful connections and friendships.

I wouldn‘t use this in my class because it‘s a little on the long side and I don‘t think my students would be able to follow along with the story

I really liked the illustrations but unfortunately it was hard to keep my attention on it. I‘m sure it‘s a great story if I could fully focus on it

It‘s almost time to begin our year of #SeasonalCozies ! It will be fun to see what everyone is planning to read. 😀

All are welcome. Please comment below if you would like to be added to, or deleted from, the tag list.

This is a low key challenge, reading one or more cozy mysteries each month, featuring seasonal vibes or a holiday that takes place in that month. Feel free to dip in and out each month

Love Jan Brett‘s books! The artwork is always amazing. 🎃 #ominousoctober @Eggs @Alwaysbeenaloverofbooks #teamslaughter #scarathlon @Clwojick

Because our back room, which used to be a back porch, is a little funky in doorway/window placement, it's kind of turned into a glorified hallway. Husband and I really wanted it to be a place where we actually hang out, so yesterday we went to our awesome used furniture store in town and immediately found exactly what we wanted - a round chair that could be in a corner-ish space, and a bench (this one actually is a futon and folds flat!) that is ⬇

@AmyK1 It looks like your #Jolabokaflodswap is arriving today, so fast! Just a heads up so that you don't open it. :)

@MaleficentBookDragon

I couldn't find the book I wanted to send in stores here in Florida, so I used the evil Amazon. Sorry 😬 but my #jolabokaflodswap should get to my swap buddy in plenty of time. 😊 Can't wait for this night of cozy!!

Made this last year to capture some cozy, autumnal vibes. Posting it again, unaltered, along with the exact same caption. Work smarter, not harder. 😅

“Give me water, & flowers, & soft, fuzzy things (especially bunnies); taupes, & greens, & blues, & lavender; glowing lights, seashells, worn wood, & flannels. Give me coffee or give me death. ☕️🖤💀 “

I just want to curl up, warm up, & zonk out. Preferably by the seaside with a fire in the hearth.

❄️I‘m grateful for my husband and son, and that I‘m relatively healthy.
