Welcome to Litsy!

4⭐️ I vaguely remember reading this book back when I was younger but I remember abandoning it because I didn‘t really understand what was going on. Reading it now, I thought that it was a really well-written story and that it probably was a little too much over my head at the time when I was younger. I liked how well the author developed the characters and the story. #2024 #bookreview #fiction #historicalfiction #middlegrade #newberymedal

Yeah well. I read it because it won the #NewberyMedal and I needed that to finish the #52bookclub23, but finishing that challenge was about the greatest satisfaction I got out of the book. Let‘s just say I‘m not a fan of YA and the teen drama just doesn‘t work me. I can see though why my daughter loved it.

Thanksgiving reading and working on finishing a reading challenge. Claiming this for a children's classic I've never read because #NewberyMedal means classic, right?

I‘ve had this ARC for over a year. I considered donating it a couple times but always thought that no, this one is special. I was right. #NewberyMedal

This is the Newbery Medal winner for 2018. I‘m a children‘s lead at work so I love when these awards get announced.

First of all, sorry for the crazy number of posts. I've done nothing but reading and cleaning today, because I'm savouring my last full day off before going back to work. I picked this one up on a whim, because it was available on #overdrive, and I finished it in less than an hour. It was adorable, funny and insightful.

I'm taking the #2017ReadHarderChallenge and wasn't too stoked about reading a book about sports until I remembered that this book was on my tbr. #newberymedal #corettascottkingaward #bookriot #readharder

"Sometimes when you are surrounded by dirt, CJ, you are a better witness for what is beautiful." 4.5/5 ⭐️ for this #Caldecott Honor AND #NewberyMedal Winner. ? Great picture book! It makes for a great read aloud as well as it allows for a great discussion. Toddlers to 4th grade may enjoy this ?.
