Rainbow Garden (Revised) | Patricia St John

Sweet story about finding joy in hard circumstances with lovely imagery of the Welsh countryside. Not as complete of a story as my all time favorite St. John, Treasures of the Snow, but nonetheless a lovely spring read.

Dorrie and the Blue Witch | Patricia Coombs

pick

Fantastic, loved it. I‘ve been collecting as many Dorrie the Witch books as I can find. This one was elusive, so I resorted to eBay and had to get a little paperback edition. All the others I‘ve found are the hardcover school editions like I read in elementary school.

I have “Ev‘rybody Wants To Be A Cat” in my head, so I thought I‘d do a #TuesdayTunes & #CatsOfLitsy crossover post.

What are your favorite cats songs?

Tom's Midnight Garden. Philippa Pearce | Philippa Pearce

So I started an online class, and between it and job applications, I apparently barely had time to finish a middle reader book (that I devoured multiple times when I was a kid) before the library wanted it back.
That said, this is still very sweet and it was fun reading it as an adult that understands the framing story of mid-century England much better. I also think it was what originally set me on the path of becoming a time travel bitch.
