Welcome to Litsy!

I feel like this book could be set in modern times
Thomas Gradgrind is raising his children to only care about facts. It doesn't go well. Tom is a thief, and Louisa marries the walking red flag Josiah Bouderby. The facade starts to crack after Louisa has an emotional affair and flees to her childhood home.

Word 2/5

#WindsOfMarch Day 16: This is a different kind of #TeaParty. The book reads a little like a manual, or a guidebook for young ones on what to do as they invite guests for tea in their home, esp if the guest is a Tyrannosaurus Rex – from greeting guests at the door and bidding them farewell once the tea party is over. My review: https://wp.me/pDlzr-bXi

If Miss Manners wrote about hosting a dinosaur for tea, the result would be this adorable and charming book.

Lots happening this week! We are recording episode 2 of the Quarterly Book Club this Sunday! Can't wait to talk about it with my sassy and sarcastic guests!
