pickAbsolutely love this series! This time Hilda joins the scouts and is distracted by little nissi (elves) that are getting kicked out of their houses. Also there is a big scary black hound terrorizing the neighborhood. Wonderful graphics, funny story and just love Hilda all around.
Winter Hayes is 7 as Christopher Robin from Winnie The Pooh ❤️
Snow day! May not seem like a big deal for people in the North, but we don't get this much snow in Houston....like ever. It is quite peaceful to sit here with my book and coffee and watch the giant flakes fall from the sky
pickJace & I read these for #foodandlit this month. Strega Nona is set in Italy for #Jubilee - and the others are all set in The Netherlands. Strega Nona was very cute, and I also really liked The Hero of Little Street, which has no words but is quite the adventure when a little boy gets sucked into a 17th century painting in Holland. 🇮🇹🇳🇱

Our first snow day of the school year…and it kinda sucks because it‘s also the first day of assessment week…which means everything pushes ahead a day. 🤪 Still, I am hoping to get a pile of marking done and maybe finish my current read and make some cupcakes to bring to the kids tomorrow. I have already shovelled, but will have to go back out once the plow has come along.
Oh @LeahBergen what a wonderful parcel! Well worth the wait! 😉 Thank you so much! Thrilled with the books! (So pleased to have a Handheld Books edition as I eyed them for years but never purchased one!) Love the card, the post card, the bookmark, the whole kit'n'caboodle. ☺️ And curious if you would recommend visiting Mankato?
It's #threelistthursday on Saturday! 😛
These are my three favorites from the list. I don't remember most of what I read as a child, so my number very well could be much higher. I also don't consider LOTR as children's books, but i liked it, so I won't complain.
One thing about lists like this is that good books are overlooked for multiples in a series or theme. I'd just bundle Harry Potter & the Moomins together to highlight others.
Totally forgot to do this yesterday…

Thanks for the tag @Sace 😊
I have several large memory gaps from childhood, so this was hard to answer! This is my best recollection.
My favorite is The Witches by Roald Dahl. My 4th grade teacher read this to her class every year. She had an epic, powerful Grand High Witch voice. I remember hearing it echo down the hall in 3rd grade & hoping that I'd get Mrs. Abrams the next year. I liked reading before her class - I LOVED it after.
