I‘ve become a great aunt to Isabella Andrea Hamilton 🥰im lucky 🍀 to be very close to my niece (and nephew ) could never have children myself due to medical issues sometimes it‘s just not meant to be , however I do find it strange when people (this happened a lot to us on holiday recently in Croatia 🇭🇷 for some strange reason) when people ask you if you have children, you say no and then they want an explanation why 🫨I never do that, some of

Bookbuyingaddict My friends have chosen not to have children due to career , lifestyle , simply just not wanting to and Wer in our 50s and late 40s, anyway I will buy Isabella lots and lots of books with this one being the first , found a gorgeous cloth edition ready for her to throw up on 🤣 13h

May 5th #Bibliophile Birds 🐦 I always wondered why this little bird is looking for his mother. It's one of my favorites. @Eggs @Alwaysbeenaloverofbooks

4 ⭐The story is simple and lovely. It‘s about how moms do everything. They are the bright shining moon in the world that their kids gravitate towards. Without Mom‘s where would we be.

I could never figure out why this bird never knew who his mother was, and it bothered my kid brain. It still does! Two bingonspots for #ISpyBingoFeb @TheAromaofBooks

ShananigansReads @dabbe @Bookwormjillk I‘m glad I‘m not the only one having an emotional breakdown due to this book. I‘m also kinda glad neither of my littlest niblings has asked me to read this. 3mo

dabbe @ShananigansReads I don't have kids, but I once read THE RED PONY to my 7th graders, having not read it beforehand (rookie teacher mistake). When I got to the sad part (I won't say what it is), I sobbed so loudly I had to leave the classroom to compose myself. 🤣 I have a feeling it would be the same with this book for mothers. ❣️ 3mo

BooksandCoffee4Me @dabbe @ShananigansReads I was crying when reading the ending of Of Mice and Men and a dear student offered to finish reading for me. Now that I recall, that also happened when reading Summer of My German Soldier. 3mo
dabbe @BooksandCoffee4Me Yes to both! Every time I showed the movie OF MICE AND MEN (with Gary Sinise and John Malkovich), you'd hear sniffling throughout the whole class--and this was AFTER we had read it! 3mo

3 ⭐ This is a typical picture book. It is Illinois reads 2025. The illustrations are standard fair but the story rhymes nicely and moves quickly. While, this is a fun book. I do not think it will be a 20 years on the shelf book.

3.5 ⭐This book is very similar to the first book “Take Hart my Child”. This one the child is here, and the mom is realizing that her plans may not always be successful as her child becomes their own individual person. This still has the rhyming pattern, the cadence, and the love in the pages that is felt in the first book. This does not state that there is a co-author. It is so like the first book that they could be carbon copies or a

LibrarianRyan continuation of the story. This time I read the letter from the author in the back, and they include how heavily they are influenced by God and they want God to be their child‘s light and protector and all those things. That is lovely if that‘s what you believe in. I have a hard time matching this story with the lady I see on Fox News. It is possible for someone to have two separate personalities and while I do love this book, I‘m not convinced it 4mo

3.5 ⭐This book was lovely. It rhymes well and the story flows well. It has a cadence that is easy on the tongue and a story that seems positive and uplifting and happy. However, this book is by a Fox News host. I can‘t judge somebody by their job, but they are too many references of be yourself. You‘re my child. I love you. Be the colors others don‘t see etc. On the title page it does say that this was written with Catherine Cristaldi

LibrarianRyan and I‘m wondering how much work Catherine had to put into this. It seems too worldly and accepting to not have had help. The back gives us a bio blurb of the author, and of the illustrator, but not of the person who helped co-author the book. While I do think this book is lovely and I would share it and add it to a library collection, I question who really wrote it. 4mo
