#25Alive #FaveWinterFood

2024 Favourite Superhero stories and Picture Books: Some graphic novels wandered into other categories this year, but I've still obviously got a big soft spot for DC comics, especially Nightwing and Batman. Other notable miniseries include a more paranormal look at Gotham, and a stylish noir in Human Target. I enjoy the art in a lot of picture books, but the three shown at bottom right were particularly lovely in both sentiment and aesthetic.

Thank you @monalyisha for running #AuldLangSpine again this year! It‘s such a fun event where you share your list of favorite reads from this year with your match and you read at least one book from each other‘s lists. I‘ve discovered some epic books from this event over the years!! Tagging one of my fave reads of this year—and because Litsy is such a special family!

A child that has superpowers and as soon as she starts to walk, she becomes a blur. How does the family deal with her. This is a second grade reader book. #ISpyBingoJuly @Clwojick @TheAromaofBooks

As an adoptive parent, I felt incredibly seen by this book. As Frankel herself points out, it‘s vanishingly rare to see adoption portrayed in the media as a source of a (complicated, human) joy.

I'd be more inclined to call this a poem with illustrations. The rhyming couplet certainly feature in children's books, but something about the wording and the content (very young readers might have to be reassured at one point that the bunnies will be okay) feels more like a poem that many ages would identify with. Something earthy, yet ethereal, delicately organic, about the art. If you're looking for seasonal reads, try this one in winter!

Book read to Henry ☺️ 📚
