I saw @Amiable posted her favourite reads from past #AuldLangSpine matches, and I love the idea! As I look forward to reading from @CarolynM's list in 2025, here are my faves from my past awesome matches:

@MeganAnn - The Girls at the Kingfisher Club (historical fiction meets fairy tale retelling at its finest)

@sprainedbrain - Eleanor Oliphant is Completely Fine

@monalyisha - World of Wonders (so good I've read it twice now!)

Enjoy!

“You had to stand in the very front part of the wing against the black curtain“

I would integrate this book in my classroom because the book integrates being a graphic novel with a more feminine sport such as dancing. The duality of it is very interesting and I think would be great to be in my classroom!

Siena dreams of becoming a dancer and makes her way from a beach near her home in Puerto Rico to Boston all the way to the New York City Ballet. Shares about her dreams and a dancer's beginnings.

For younger students but books that help with social emotional regulation are always the best.
