Welcome to Litsy!

I‘m taking a weekly online class on Dracula to mark its 125 anniversary, and am decorating the inside cover of my class notebook (all black paper from Archer & Olive, so delicious) with my doodles. #draculaanniversary #doodles #art

Yes it was exciting. But so very different than expected and in the middle part it dragged. And it is clearly the wrong season for the book. And in fact the actual case is over quite quickly and 'simplistic' A very quirky book. Some of my friends added little sketch on the first page. ❤️ #thriller #firstpage #doodles

I really enjoyed how the art work came to life. It was great to see middle schoolers working together for a common good.

Shoutout to my daughter from another mother for introducing me to Chad Sell. He had me at hello with this cute graphic novel. #graphicnovel #doodleville

This was cute enough and there‘s lots of artsy (&other) kids that will enjoy it. Not being a lover of superheroes, it just wasn‘t really my thing.

I really liked this #middlegrade #fictiongraphicnovel that deals with friendship, art as an emotional outlet, and how important it is to deal with your emotions and not deny or bury them. First in a series. #bbrc #bookspinbingo #freespace

I feel like a horrible crumogeon, but something about the magical system in the world of this story didn‘t feel right to me. There are great moments. But the metaphor of art as living creatures that the artist has responsibility to, in perpetuity, seems awkward

We are big fans of Cardboard Kingdom at our house, so we had to read Sell‘s newest, and we loved it!

In Drew‘s world art is alive, and this includes her doodles. But her doodles aren‘t always on their best behavior and her friends in Art Club are tired of it. When Drew creates Levi things really go sideways and she‘ll need the help of everyone to stop the chaos.

So fun! It's got drawings for each story. Maybe I bought it at Tim Burton's MOMA exhibit? I can't remember.
Stain boy is my favorite!
