Welcome to Litsy!

Look what I just got at Aldi‘s for $5!!

Now this one is specifically about the Fourth of July & makes a point of being inclusive.

Also going with your family to watch the fireworks together in a community spirit so that‘s nice. 🇺🇸

Also a The Book Drop recommendation.

#CharacterCharm Day 8: Parastoo‘s (which means “swallow bird” in Farsi) mother had to leave to serve as a #nurse during wartime. There is a layer of authenticity to the narrative as it appears the story is culled from Kheiriyeh‘s own experience as she dedicates the book to her own mother who served as a nurse during wartime, & grandfather who used to make nests for the parastoo in his house in Iran.

Yes!

This book was super adorable. Two mice are cut out of books and go on a night adventure individually and eventually they meet up to have more fun as friends. Wonderful graphics.

#JuneSpecials Day 8: When you are #Bestfriends with a book, it‘s the best thing ever. This is a perfect read-aloud for young ones who are on their way to discovering the many journeys they will make with a book in hand, the bestest friend anyone could ever have. My full review: https://wp.me/pDlzr-rpd

Oh.My.God. What an amazing book! Just the graphics alone are well worth the read but the story included is just perfect! Rene opens up a cafe to serve her yummy food and hires Slewfoot, a quiet goblin as a waiter. The problem now is she doesn't have any customers. Slewfoot finds her an ogre as a customer but his requests are too strange for Rene to make. What will Rene do?? Just a wonderful touching story for any age

Words I didn‘t expect to read in a picture book in general and in a Snow White retelling featuring minature ponies in particular : “I‘m a tax attorney” 🤭

3 ⭐When you have a kid that won‘t go to sleep, and you tell him to count sheep this is the book you get. Our little person is determined not to go to sleep, and their mom says count the sheep. When they get to 68 the sheep does not want to be counted. And the kid gets to experience what mom experiences when it‘s time to go to bed. This book was fine.

This adorable little book is about a little girl who goes out one night with her grandmother to see the moon. They blow kisses to it, and when it begins to snow, the child thinks the moon is blowing kisses of its own, back to her. A magical, lighthearted book for anyone who loves the cold, snow, and moonlit nights. 🌨️🌚❄️
