This book kept me up until 2AM to finish. Loved everything about it. It had all the feels. I ugly cried a couple of times. This is a book I wish I could again for the first time. 5⭐️

Sadly, I was not a fan of this book. While the idea is good—looking at possibilities and contradictions in a healthy way—I got so bogged down with the repetitious “just because…it doesn‘t mean.” The writing also contains slang phrases, so it‘s a definite in the moment publication.

The illustrations are nice, but I‘m not sure they always matched up with the words. Sorry, McConaughey fans, this one is not for me. #PictureBook #LetterJ #BBRC

When their ethno-musicologist uncle goes missing, he leaves his twin niece and nephew clues to help find him. Stuck in history, in places and times where music had played important ethnic roles—the kids are hot on their uncle‘s heels to find him and to save music from a bad guy hot on their heels. A jaunt through music history, including jazz, bluegrass, and meeting Mozart. #litsyatoz #scarathlonatoz #LetterJ #scarathlon @Catsandbooks

I passed the Bee County Courthouse on my way to my hotel today for a work trip, listening to the tagged book.

A #PictureBook biography about Zoe‘s Neale Hurston‘s early life. The illustrations are so vibrant and captivating. The narrative is a little hard to read aloud, but still reflects Hurston‘s determination to “jump at the sun” and achieve her goals, #BBRC #LetterJ
