Welcome to Litsy!

Lovely #nonfictionpicturebook #biography of the boy who became President. I particularly enjoyed learning how he worked hard to overcome his stutter (memorizing poetry, experimenting with marbles…). The book itself does not mention the death of his wife and daughter or of his son later on, but these events are included in a timeline at the end of the book. #JoeBiden

A fun page of Bidenisms at the end of this #PictureBook #Biography of #JoeBiden written by Dr #JillBiden and illustrated by #AmyJunesBates

In honour of Joe Biden‘s inauguration, his favourite ice cream shop made a very special, limited run ice cream that celebrates his usual order (a double scoop of chocolate chip ice cream in a waffle cone). They ship all over the US. We couldn‘t help ourselves. We do love our ice cream!!! In my imagination, there is a freezer in the White House kitchen full of this!!! He‘ll be eating it for the next 4 years. 🤣😂🤣🍨🍨🍨

This is a fun look at Joe Biden‘s life for kids. The art work is great. The story combined with the artwork (and occasional photos) just make you smile. Whatever your political affiliation, this book has good lessons for children and adults in it about being a good person, being helpful and responsible, standing up for others, and working hard.

Found this little treasure at the last minute before payday. Just from paging through it, I think it‘s just adorable. It‘s written by Dr Jill Biden, so this is about as official as it gets. 💙💙💙 I‘m feeling much more hopeful with Joe(y) and Dr. Jill in the White House. I‘ll definitely be keeping some of them around as well.

I'm making more effort to review what I read because last year I went into a slump. Already I'm 15 books ahead of schedule and my litfluence is improving. No if I could just get vaccinated.

Just received this gift for my school library. Not a bad idea to read for presidents day. I always cry though when I read about perseverance. I'm such a blubber head.

Y‘all, I loved this. 😭🥺 A simple presentation of Joe‘s lifelong dedication to the betterment of his immediate community and his country, lovingly written by the excellent Dr. Jill Biden (#callherbyhertitle!!!!), and beautifully illustrated by Amy June Bates. It‘s been two months since the election, and a week since the Inauguration, and I‘m still just...so proud. 🥺😭 #joey #thestoryofjoebiden #joebiden #joe46 #drjillbiden #drflotus #decencywon

Enjoying reading the newspaper tonight. (Yes, we support local journalism!)

Loved the illustrations for this picture book intro to Joe.
When dealing with bullies his mother told him:
“Remember Joey, you‘re a Biden.
Nobody is better than you.
You‘re not better than anyone else, but nobody is any better than you.”
