#ReadAway2024 #20in4 #Readathon

Read tonight for November‘s #ChildrensClassicRead2024 This was a cute story & quick read with life lessons told through animal characters. It‘s apparently a series with different animals the lead in each book. It was perhaps a bit “folksy” for me but I enjoyed it overall. 🐿️ 🤎

TheBookHippie It is definitely folksy, LOLOLOLOL - but I did enjoy the little lessons, although I read it with grandson so that made it a bit more fun! I like having the knowledge of it. These stories are talked about a ton here and taught at every private school. I was always curious. 3w

Aww this was cute. It started out a little slow for me but by the end I was fully invested in Chatterer‘s fate. 😆 Thanks for hosting the #ChildrensClassicRead2024 @TheBookHippie ! 4⭐️

Okay, I‘m learning to tolerate squirrels more after reading this cute classic. Even if they do sabotage my bird feeders.😆 I was more fascinated to learn about author Burgess who adored nature & spent his writing life teaching children to appreciate all wildlife. He wrote more than 170 books! Plus he was big on conservatism and helped pass laws to protect migrating wildlife.🙌🏻
Thx @TheBookHippie for another great read!

Not book-related at all but.... today I saw red squirrels in the wild! I‘ve only ever seen a glimpse of one at a distance - here there were 5 or 6 skittering around all over the place!

It‘s a bit chilly out and about though - certainly not the warmer temperatures that were forecast.... sitting in the van reading before going out for a pub tea later.... and then home tomorrow to my Christmas book stacks!

jenniferw88 Woohoo! I'm so pleased for you! 🎉🎉🎉😻 5y

Hooked_on_books There were bionic red squirrels at my university. They ate out of the trash cans and would launch themselves out when you threw something in. I also had one steal a cookie straight out of my hand once (it was not being offered). I‘m pretty sure they were 2-3x normal size. 😂 5y
squirrelbrain @Hooked_on_books - I‘d love a bionic red squirrel! 🤣🤣 5y
