I really enjoyed this #AtoZReadathon challenge, just 4 away from a full set! I'll tag my reads in the comments. It's been a great month with some fantastic reads. Thank you for hosting @Texreader

Clarkson‘s rhyming text is represented beautifully by the illustrations. While the text does rhyme in most cases, there are moments when the rhyme is broken throughout the narrative—I found this to be a little odd and broke the rhythm of the narrative. I did not listen to the song featured in the book, but there is info provided to listen to the lullaby. #PictureBook #BBRC #LetterR

LibrarianRyan I know there was 2 or 3 of these books. I only read 1 and was not in love with it, but I love Kelly! 3mo

This quick read #PictureBook bio of Aretha Franklin plays off of her best known song (see the title of this book) and uses a rhyming structure to tell a very basic overview of her life. What I love most are the illustrations - so vivid and colorful and poetic on their own. Beware - you may feel like belting out her hits after reading this one! #BBRC #LetterR

Though this has appeared on banned books‘ lists, I‘m still not quite sure what is objectionable about the book…don‘t get me started on book banning!

When relatives come for the summer, they bring lots of good tidings and fun. The illustrations show happy people doing everything together. I like the color scheme of the images and can see why it is a Caldecott Honor book. #PictureBook #BBRC #LetterR

marleed Oh. I have this book and had no idea it was a banned book - geesh. I guess that means I need too pull it out an read with my grandkids. There‘s another book by this pair called, It‘ll Come A Tide. That story became part of our vernacular while raising my kids! 1y
Librarybelle @marleed It‘s so bizarre that this was banned! It‘s a fun read 1y

Going with the ONE for this prompt. No video games in this romance. But there are boxing match “games,” which may count as player one and two lol

Klou Nice choice! 2y
