Happy Halloween to those who are celebrating! 🎃👻💀
This is this year‘s carved pumpkin!
Picture book (1968)- The colors reds, golds, and yellows represent the joyful moments, especially when Fool succeeds or has magical events happen. The darker colors in the book, blue, purple, and grays, are used for danger and difficult challenges, which helps students understand the emotional shift in the story.
“Though everyone thought he was a fool, he kept going, and with a little clever thinking and a lot of kindness, he achieved the impossible.”
I can use the book The Fool of the World and the Flying Ship in the classroom to do an activity on literacy activities. I can do a lesson on story sequencing, and the students can retell the story of Fool's Journey.

Wow what a dark read, especially that it's a children's book. The premise is that our main character wants to give a gift for his son at his christening but they are poor. So he is on a mission to find his son a godfather. He talks to God, the devil and Death and winds up choosing Death as his godfather. What happens after that is just crazy and wonderful. Definitely not a happy ending. Awesome illustrations as well.

Read these to Jace just in time for #foodandlit and St. Patrick‘s Day. The tagged book was really funny, and the one about St. Patrick himself was very informative for a children‘s book. Thanks for the recommendations @TheBookHippie ! 🤗
