pickMy mom bought this for my daughter when she was visiting. The 9 year old at the end said, “is that all?” Although she is a child that likes to ignore me & her responsibilities like making her bed (similar to the book). I love Trevor Noah & the drawings were beautiful.
pickAbsolutely gorgeous picture about colour and nature, wouldn't expect anything less from Jillian Tamaki. I love how she draws movement.

Listening to 9 yo Barbara Newhall Follett‘s House Without Windows & Patti‘s audiobook while waiting for my book mail of The Story She Left Behind. Patti Callahan Henry once again swept me down a Rabbit Hole of research!
BNF @ 4 yo learned to read & type. At 9 yo created her own land & language. Reading Barbara Newhall Follett‘s Letters, The Lost Words, & about Beatrix Potter & HER secret language, and THEIR love of nature

At my school, the staff, children, and families read The Water Horse. For the past 20 years, we have also celebrated the arts and spring with Blooming Arts Day, which is always the day before our spring break. We paint, local bands perform. Appalachian storytellers come. It is truly a magical day that I look forward to each year. We also celebrate the children's writing.
Too much for one post. Please continue reading.
pickRead these to Jace just in time for #foodandlit and St. Patrick‘s Day. The tagged book was really funny, and the one about St. Patrick himself was very informative for a children‘s book. Thanks for the recommendations @TheBookHippie ! 🤗

pickI chose these for Jace and I to read together for #foodandlit this month. The alphabet book was cute although kind of grim for a kid‘s book. Let‘s See Ireland was not my cup of tea. Does anyone have any good recs for children‘s books set in Ireland? 🇮🇪

There's a blizzard today. The list of area closures is so long. Even the Catholics canceled their Ash Wednesday services. And I'm at work, not at home snuggling and reading. It's making me a bit salty.
Wish me luck on the commute home! I'm looking forward to starting Brave Hearted tonight for #riseupreads!
