Welcome to Litsy!

I got an amazing deal on ground pork this morning, so I went to the library to borrow my favourite cookbook and ended up grabbing a couple short story collections off their feature display plus a play by Tomson Highway. #MFMarch

The 12 Days of Christmas

Since this book was about a dog, trying to find his calm, I would use this book to help with my student social emotional development as a whole class lesson.

“A welcome list of someplace new”

“here, a pup can run“

It could be a fun idea to have children infer a story from the pictures on one read-through!

I love this book. It has few words and phrases, but the illustrations tell the story so well even without the words. The art is incredible and in-depth. A cute story about a cute dog overwhelmed by the noise and bustle of the city in summer. He and his owner visit the beach to cool (and calm) down.

There was a lot of info here. Luckily, Goldberg writes in a very engaging, witty, and humorous way; other wise it would've read like a dry history text. The individual POVs from each side were interesting and enlightening and sometimes frustrating. Overall, a very worthy read.

This completed a second bingo for the month; yayyy!

"On the morning of the fine spring day, full of sunshine, that ended with my arrest in Gaza, I woke early from an uneven sleep, dressed, and pushed back to its proper place the desk meant to barricade the door of my hotel room."

Ok, a #BookSpinBingo book for another bingo that I actually have not read ?
