Whose celebrating with me? 🙌🏻

I loved so many things about this: irrepressible Selina, her pony named Haggis, the food descriptions, the Scottish setting, and a goose named Big Wullie! The basic plot: Selina befriends a crusty old farmer when her pony keeps “planting” himself in said farmer‘s turnip field.

Selina is kind of a misfit—both her mishaps & her soft heart for outsiders are endearing. The exploration of what it means to take care of others, even when you and they ⤵️

Yesterday's acquisitions. The tagged book sounds fab - a history of childhood reading. I've spotted chapters on Enid Blyton, Nancy Drew,, Anna Sewell, E Nesbit, Moomins, brothers grimm, and all sorts of goodness. I'm thinking this could be a perfect winter or Christmas read.

Andrew (@tiedyedude) and I had great fun reading this aloud together, narrating the characters with silly voices. The accent changed frequently. 😁

I'm joining the #JustOnemoreChapter #readathon this weekend, hosted by @TheAromaofBooks

My #bookhaul from McKay‘s in Knoxville. Not my best excursion there, but it‘s amusing that I also bought a cymbal boom stand for my drum set. Usually I find books at random other stores, but this time I found percussion equipment at a book store. Kiddo was much more successful, but I don‘t know if I‘ll get a picture of her haul as she‘s already squirreled it away.
