Welcome to Litsy!

“Or attention-getting”

#embarrassed My aunt taught at this school through a lot of the 80s and early 90s. My aunt who used the n-word until around 1990. Then she must have gotten some sensitivity training because she stopped until the past year when my mom has heard her use it a couple of times 😡🤦🏻‍♀️

It‘s so frustrating and upsetting that she is backsliding into racism.

I adore this series! The illustrations are stupendous! What really makes them great are the facial expressions of the dogs. In this book Zorro gets an outfit to wear and is embarrassed until he and Mister Bud meet another dog, Dart, at the park with an outfit who is great at racing, jumping and catching. Then it doesn‘t seem so bad wearing an outfit.

Seeing as though I've signed The Kid up for another book exchange, I should probably post more of what she's reading.
Me: Anything you want the people of Litsy to know about this book?
The Kid: It's good for people who like lions and drawing because he drew good pictures.

See Josh, I told you Flib would lover her outfit. Zorro does.

I've never read Pride and Prejudice. Which may not be horrible... But I really want to read ELIGIBLE, the modern retelling of it and feel like it only makes sense to read the original first.

QUESTION! Are there any classics you are surprised/embarrassed to have not yet read? Confess here!
