Word of the month #reflect
Leo makes a decision.
Illustrations in kid-lit are often described as simple (condescending?). The concept of reflection is not simple. In drawing, gesture is the technique used to convey meaning, but we don't label illustrations like we name literary devices. Maybe if we did, educators would teach more using graphic novels. What would you call them though?

Hey friends!! So I've been looking at my life and my upcoming schedule, and I am going to pause #RandomClassics definitely for January, and maybe longer, kind of depending. We're thinking about moving (!!!!!) plus we are going out of town in January, so there is a lot going on 😂 I still have a huge list of classics I would like to read, and I have really enjoyed reading these with you all, but for now I need to skip a month!! I'll let everyone ⬇

Librarybelle Sounds good to me! 2mo
Lcsmcat Wow, you do have a lot going on! The great thing about the classics is they‘ll be there when you‘re ready. 2mo

Cuilin #WhatTheDickens is reading Nicholas Nickleby next. We can wait until February too. 2mo
TheAromaofBooks @Cuilin - There is no telling when I will be back on track 😂 Especially if we actually move out of this house we've lived in for 10 years. Sooooo many barnacles to sort through and pack! 😆 So please don't wait for me - I may still read along in January, I just know that hosting is beyond my commitment parameters right now haha 2mo
wordslinger42 Sounds good to me! 2mo
ChaoticMissAdventures That is a lot!! Hope everything goes smoothly, and just let us know when you are ready! Moving is always too much. And a break is always a great idea especially this time of year. 2mo
BarbaraJean Moving and travels is a LOT—and my January is packed as well, so I‘m happy for a pause on my side, too!! Happy to jump back in whenever you have the space to host again 😊 (edited) 2mo

Ivy + Bean | Annie Barrows

“Ivy and Bean Break the Fossil Record“ presents a fun and imaginative take on childhood adventures, focusing on themes of friendship, curiosity, and exploration. While it captures the essence of play and creativity, it may not fully represent the complexities and challenges many children face today. Students may find it hard to relate to.

Pickpick

Ivy and bean,2007. The main character of the series, Bean, is a restless, quirky second grader who likes doing things in her own way. Ivy, a quiet bookworm, seems the opposite of Bean, but she understands her best friend better than anybody else. Bean is bored during a reading class until the teacher gives her an Amazing Book of World Records. Since then, Bean can‘t think of anything but breaking a world record herself.
