pick#AboutABook Day 13: #FairyTaleRetell in verse. Fats‘ review: “In this poetry collection, Ron Koertge reimagines classic stories and turns them into twisted tales. I must warn you. This book is not for everyone, and this is definitely not for the faint-hearted.” More here: https://wp.me/pDlzr-5lc
pickYA HF in verse, based on a true story. When Frederika Bremer, from Sweden 🇸🇪, sets off to learn about the people of the magical island of Cuba 🇨🇺, she is accompanied by Cecilia, a young slave who longs for her lost home in Africa. They are joined by Elena, daughter in the house where Frederika is staying. The 3 women form a wonderful relationship that transcends language, backgrounds, and social conventions 💗

pickVery good. The characters are displayed in a lighting that truly shows not only the experiences but also how they have grow and deal with them in the present. Not only are the character very raw, but also written in a way that may help others to find comfort and potentially gain help for themselves. Maybe one day we may finally understand what others need and what can be done to help. For now, just keep living.
so-soThe poetry included a number of powerful lines that I really enjoyed. I found it to be a little hard to engage with all the characters equally and was most connected to Cecilia, but it was still an interesting and thought-provoking read.
Even though I‘ve been a Litten for years, I‘ve never participated in this before! I‘m quite excited to meet new friends or learn more about some old!
