Welcome to Litsy!

A little like little Red, but with emphasis on adventure and overcoming fears. I'd kind of like an acorn full of magical healing soup. 🥚 🌽 X 5

4 ⭐This was an interesting read. Papa and son go to work on a Saturday. They have many yards that they have to tend and Papa tells the son that they can tell time by the water jug. When the water jug is empty, they get to go home. However, son did a little bit more with water than drink it. He splashes his back, he waters the pets, and when the water jug is empty it‘s only 10:30 am papa has to admit that it‘s not a magical water jug.

Stacey reads at recess! I did too! 😄 #CharactersReading

I love this book. Stacey starts a reading club in the library with students whose first languages aren't English--so not only do they get to learn & practice English, they learn words from other languages from each other. 😊 I wish all schools had reading clubs like that.

I remember my Mom telling me, when I was little, that homeless people were mostly men. But organizations like the UN say that more women then men live in poverty. So when I glanced at a kid‘s book and saw that it was about the first shelter for women, that was OPENED IN 1974. I had to pick it up. We visited the moon before we opened a shelter for women. I‘m going to need more books about Kip Tiernan, if anyone can rec them.

“Never forget that charity is scraps from the table and justice is a place at the table. Charity is giving to others what belongs to you. Justice is giving to others what belongs to them.” Kip Tiernan
