Welcome to Litsy!

I loved this book when I was a little girl. My grandmother would read to me in bed when she would come and visit when I was little. This book reminds me of our time together. Such a wonderful story.

Thanks for hosting this #500kgiveaway @debinhawaii

From the other non-contiguous state, 5 things that bring me joy:

1. My wife @wildalaskabibliophile 👩‍❤️‍👨
2. My cat Black Jack 🐈‍⬛(honorable mention to our other pets)
3. A nice hot cup of tea ☕
4. A well-told story (book, song/concert, movie, play) 🎟️
5. Doing something that benefits others 🌈

Readable and informative look at the anatomy of the ocean, its movement and why, biodiversity in all the layers, and complexities. Portions of the book will find its way in my Honors Science class- interesting without being dry, informative not too technical, and a perfect explanation to listen to climate news with more understanding. Excellent.

Captivating! This is an incredible work of nonfiction about the deepest parts of the oceans by Susan Casey, who traveled with teams of researchers to the ocean floor in submersibles. Readers get to know crew members, learn about the technology of the dives, and find out about the incredible life in the depths. Plus, new environmental fear unlocked: companies are trying to mine the depths for materials for batteries. More ⬇️

I‘m in a Care For Creation (environmental) group at church and we have committed to each reading one book about the environment each month. This was my January book. It was pretty dated, but I couldn‘t resist hearing what Ted Danson had to say.

My granddaughter gave this book to her brother who loooves Narwhal and Jelly books, so I had to read it.

“But the crew keeps the lightship anchored. She holds her one sure spot.“

I would not use this book in my classroom. I did not like it and was not entertained by it.

This is a nonfiction book as it teaches the readers about lightships which are floating beacons for ships to follow. It was not very entertaining to me while reading it.

“With writhing arms and ghostly, lidless eyes they glide; some large as buses, some weighing a ton. So big, yet rarely seen.“
