A wonderfully unique Christmas picture book. Perfect for all ages. The monsters are getting the house and everything ready for Santa Claws. It's a frightfully good time! Illustrations are wicked good and I just love everything about this book.

AnneCecilie I don‘t read as many Canadian authors as I would like, but I‘m an avid user of the library 2w

Lindy @AnneCecilie Hooray for public libraries! (I am guessing that the selection of Canadian books at your library is not very large.) 2w

A Truce That Is Not Peace | Miriam Toews

In my latest video: special cakes + excellent books #CanLit #KidLit #Indigenous literature #booktube

sarahbarnes I love Toews. I didn‘t realize she had a memoir out. Stacking. 3w

Lindy @sarahbarnes I‘m happy to hear from another Toews fan. The American cover evokes the idea of wind, while the Canadian cover does the opposite. (The Canadian cover illustrates a particular moment Toews remembers from her childhood.) 3w

Can I Get There by Candlelight? | Jean Slaughter Doty

Look what I‘m reading, @Centique . You were the last person to post about this book … 8 years ago. 😆

A young girl discovers that she can visit the past while riding her pony, Candy (aka Candlelight). I can‘t resist a vintage time-slip story!

Book of Records | Madeleine Thien

pick

I haven‘t been posting links to my booktube videos lately, mostly because the Litsy app no longer works properly on my iPad, making its use inconvenient. Anyway, Madeleine Thien‘s remarkable book is in the latest episode. (Please let me know if you want me to continue posting links.)
Hope & empathy are the hallmarks in this 07/04/25 episode — #LGBTQ #kidlit #CanLit #WomenInTranslation #audiobooks

LeahBergen Keep posting links! Have you tried to reload the app? 6mo

AnneCecilie Can‘t wait to watch this video and your views on Thien‘s latest (edited) 6mo

Butterfinger Yes, I was thinking of you the other day. Children at camp were being taught about folk art. I was giving examples of weaving and dying the wool. 6mo

Lindy @LeahBergen Thanks for your encouragement. 😊 Yes, I have tried deleting and redownloading the app. No luck. It‘s partly functional but I can‘t include images in Litsy on my iPad. 6mo

Lindy @AnneCecilie Thanks! I even have a Norwegian author included in this episode. 🇳🇴 6mo

Lindy @Butterfinger Hi Tammy! It‘s nice to hear that you think of me. ☺️ 6mo

marleed Oh yes, I enjoy your posts! 6mo

Lindy @marleed Thank you Marlee! ☺️ 6mo

Butterfinger The concept of claiming empathy hurts civilization. That is the scariest thing I have heard. 6mo
