This author is very funny. And sometimes gross. But she gives me perspective like at least I have some of my shit figured out.

A beautiful rendering of the journey of the first woman to complete the Appalachian Trail hike when she was 67 years old!

Tearing up over here! 🥹 Beautiful and gentle and inspiring. The importance of persistence, practice. Keep trying! ♥️ Good for the personality who 'wants to get it right the first time' of all ages. 😏

I liked this one, with a message of following your dreams. Yamaguchi‘s text has a cadence to it that flows very well for a read aloud. The illustrations are delightful. The end had me chuckle a little. #PictureBook #BBRC #LetterD

LibrarianRyan I liked this one. And I love how it has had staying power. 3mo

ElizaMarie I‘m so sad for her! To feel the way she does (inadequate). I wish she was able to talk to her HUSBAND about these things, but #AtLeastSheHasFrank. He is such a sweet man :) Also, yes “modest” has a billion different meanings. #WhatDoYouMean 7mo
dabbe I'm glad she has Frank, too, but ouch to his last line: “I suppose she was the most beautiful creature I ever saw in my life.“

Yet ... he calls Rebecca a “creature.“ I looked up the definition and found two interesting thoughts re: Miss-holier-than-thou Rebecca:
1. an animal, as distinct from a human being
2. a fictional being, typically a FRIGHTENING one.

Perhaps Rebecca ain't all she's cracked up to be. 🧐

julieclair @dabbe The word “creature” jumped out at me, too! Such an interesting word choice. What could it mean? 🤔 7mo
dabbe @julieclair Makes us want to keep reading on, right? 🤩🤩🤩 7mo
julieclair @dabbe Absolutely! Du Maurier is such a gifted writer. 7mo
