My penultimate AI themed #tuesdaytunes. I asked for Minnie Riperton (Worst likeness of all AI pics I‘ve had generated) reading The Ballad of Songbirds & Snakes; Carlos Santana reading Call of Cthulhu. I specifically asked for Genesis era Peter Gabriel reading Jane Eyre. Chick Corea reading James and the Giant Peach. Obviously Kate Bush would read Wuthering Heights and Elvis Costello doesn‘t want to go to Chelsea so reads Fever Pitch instead.

TieDyeDude I kinda want to see trading cards of these 😄 6h

The_Book_Ninja @TieDyeDude I like it🤩 5h

Bookwomble Love these 😊 Old AI does struggle with fingers, though 😄 2h

The_Book_Ninja @Bookwomble and Peter Gabriel it seems🤔 2h

Bookwomble @The_Book_Ninja He's a bit Keith Moon, isn't he? 2h

The Silver Donkey | Sonya Hartnett, Don Powers

pick

During WWI two young French girls befriend a blind, British and AWOL soldier in the woods. They agree to help him get back to his very ill brother in England. He shares stories about the silver trinket he keeps in his pocket. A very sweet and sad story. #MiddleGradeMonday

Wind in the Willows | Kenneth Grahame

pick

Sid and I LOVED reading The Wind in the Willows together. I‘d forgotten how beautiful and rich the writing is. Rat, Mole, Badger, and Toad are such a spirited and diverse bunch of characters, and the novel manages many changes in pace and direction which really immerse the reader in the complex animal world, and deepen the characterisation of each of the central animals. Somehow Toad is more of a pest every time I read this.

Ruthiella I feel like Toad appeals mostly to children, who can revel in how naughty he is. Ratty and Mole and their snug quarters and picnic lunches appeal the adults. 🐸 5d

The Wind in the Willows | Kenneth Grahame

It was just an absolute delight to revisit this old favorite. Mole abandoning his spring cleaning because the weather outside is so amazing is a definite mood, and I was here for it 😂 Loads of fun adventures and delightful characters make this such a fun read. I have vivid memories of Dad reading this one out loud to us because at one point Toad becomes enamored with a car whose horn (according to him) goes “poop poop“ and as kids we thought ⬇

TheAromaofBooks (cont'd) our very proper dad saying “poop“ was absolutely hilarious 😆
