Christmas #bookhaul, part two: children‘s and YA
I‘ve been wanting to re-read Wind in the Willows, so my husband got me a nice illustrated B&N edition, plus Alice (there was a sale 😁)
My book group read Raybearer this year, so I needed Redemptor—the sequel!
The Last Unicorn has been on my list foreeeeever
I‘ve recommended Kiki‘s Delivery Service so many times while playing Little Bookshop, I decided I needed to read it 😂
pickThis was an interesting little tale describing an island where pirates arrive seeking gems and ban all items and item names using the letter named in the title. Yet, in this tale, that letter is used many, many times, including in a few very necessary ideas.

so-so#doublespin famous five is a perfect Boxing Day read but this one wasn‘t quite as good as the others. The boys were really mean to George (and Cecil, who didn‘t really seem to do anything wrong!), and a bit too much focus on Anne playing housewife.
My favorite Christmas story/book is How the Grinch Stole Christmas ? ? and the song "You're A Mean One Mr Grinch." The original one sang in the cartoon. @Eggs @Alwaysbeenaloverofbooks

Hey #BobWhiteBuddies !! I am not even sure how many of you are still keeping up with me 😂 But for what it's worth, here is the 2026 schedule!! I am honestly still really enjoying these even if I'm kind of a terrible host sometimes LOL
pickIt seems as if art departments are always underfunded, so the Bob Whites come together to run a bikeathon to raise funds for the arts @ the high school. But then there is vandalism & threatening calls.
Another fantastic story of the Bob Whites coming together to work for their community. A mystery that Trixie seems to fall into more, & real communication between friends! Also, love that I still have to look up words for Mart. 🌕🌕🌕🌕🌑

To all who celebrate, “Merry Christmas to all, and to all a good night.“
That “jolly old elf“
brought laughter into my heart.
Thanks, St. Nicholas. ♥️🤍💚

pickCool book about the history of the lost forest. Basically, some surveyors back in the day were in the wrong part of the forest and only found a lake but not a forest. Therefore, this “lost“ forest was never on a map. Interesting history and nice illustrations.
