The One and Only Ruby | Katherine Applegate

Big thumbs up from the 9 year old as we continue through the series. Things we learned: elephants are now growing shorter tusks due to years of poaching (which is sad but cool how biology works as a way to try & protect the species). In the author‘s notes she gave some good resources: Sheldrick Wildlife Trust (oldest elephant sanctuary) & Elephant Voices website has elephant ethograms where you can learn all about elephant behaviors. She also

ncsufoxes reminded people to stay away from side of the road places offering elephant rides. If you want to see elephants or other wildlife go through ecotourism programs that allow people to see nature while protecting it. 13h

The Last Mapmaker | Christina Soontornvat

An adventure on the high seas with a talented junior mapmaker. I never really thought about how ships figured out where to go to “discover” a new landmass. There was definite emphasis on how there were already people in these places that were claimed to have been found by the empire.

My #readingbracket2025 of this month! Kind of a reading slump towards the end of the month, but still came out with lots of good books! For this month's winner we have The Tower of Nero (tagged) and for my two wild cards I have The Tyrant's Tomb and My Ishmael!

The Andalite Chronicles | K. A. Applegate

Pickpick

CRAZY work making me care about Elfangor - the andalite warrior prince who DIES DRAMATICALLY in book one after giving the “Animorphs” the power to morph AND for making it EVEN MORE TRAGIC in retrospect for the already most tragic of the Animorphs kids.

I‘m feeling totally normal and fine about it

#Two4Tuesday

1. I do—best room in the house! I have about 3,000 books give or take. Most can be found in the library although I have books in just about every room.

2. Tagged—second book in the Morrigan Crow series more than lived up to the potential of the first.

One and Only Bob | Katherine Applegate

After finishing Ivan we moved onto Bob‘s story. Another 2 big thumbs up from the 9 year old. She loved getting hear more about Bob‘s story & how he found his home. Another sweet but sad story at times following the lives of these characters.
