When the sun
Shines through the leaves of the apple-tree,
When the sun
Makes shadows of the leaves of the apple-tree,
Then I pass
On the grass
From one leaf to another
From one leaf to its brother
Tip-toe, tip-toe!
Here I go!

pickAt least one of my 2024 goals has been achieved. ✅️
I set out to read all 13 books of A Series of Unfortunate Events. I moved to audio on book 5 and was rewarded with Tim Curry narration beginning with book 6, The Ersatz Elevator. It proved to be my favorite, with Curry's performance of Esme Squalor and her obsession with trends that are in and things that are out. Overall, the series was a pick, but I didn't love it.⬇️
I read this Book #1 in the Kay Harper duology in preparation for December‘s #ChildrensClassicRead2024. The premise of the stories is fun, but some of the slang in the book made it a little difficult reading. Kay goes on a treasure hunt in his dreams- ? Or is it in real life?
We‘ll see what Kay Harper up to in his next book- The Box of Delights

I stopped buying gifts for my niblings years ago. They have all the stuff they could ever want. I buy savings bonds to put a few dollars away for their futures for birthdays and Christmas. So here I am bundled up and ready to sleep instead of being out shopping with the crowds.
Here‘s my cheesy Hallmark movie blurb!😆 Would you watch or read this? 🎄📺📖🕯️#christmaschapterchasers #wintergames @StayCurious
pickListened to this one for my #BookSpin - old fav pic. Gotta say, my daddy did way better voices 😓🖤

pickIt was a strange feeling to read this story about German POWs in lower Michigan during WWII. I never knew POW camps existed in Michigan until I was an adult, and to discover this story has a connection to the teeny (teeny) tiny town I spent my early childhood in was just bizarre. I enjoyed the verse and the POVs of these two characters. I did not enjoy the very abrupt ending, though it's certainly fitting in any book on WWII.
pickI think this is a great pick for students who love illustrations. I love how the cover contrasts the actual poems and inside of the book! Great pick for younger readers. Specifically 1st grade.
“Because the future champion of children's books was just a lad.“
I would use this in an upper elementary grade classroom. This would be a perfect book to introduce the importance of children's books and why we have them today.
