Welcome to Litsy!

Today was a real cluster cuss! But I did take the survey and scored 17/45. Here are three favorites based on the circumstances of watching or other associations.
1. Fantastic Mr. Fox - saw it during a meetup with a group of friends
2. ET - saw it with my mom the summer a new theater opened in her town
3. Remember the Titans - my niece attended TC Williams High School (which has since been renamed)

#CharacterCharm Day 31: #Witch - a fantastic curation in a local bookstore here in Dubai, Magrudy‘s - one of the longest standing bookstores in the country. Founder of this place is also the founder of Emirates Literature Festival. 🥰 Here is Iphigene‘s review of tagged book: https://wp.me/pDlzr-2fO

Loved it! I need to read more Roald Dahl ASAP

Another from the list in the article about the benefits of reading middle school novels… this one MUCH lighter than the last.
Happy I finally made time for this classic ❤️

Every day should be a reading in a hammock day! @DeweysReadathon #readathon #deweysreadathon

Good read in the "Who Was" series for kids 9-11 who enjoy books like "Charlie and The Chocolate Factory." Dahl had an adventurous life, made a comment or 2 he rightfully had to apologize for, and lost family members to illness/accidents. This is explained in kid-friendly ways, but too complicated for kids under 9. 4.5 stars. #kidlit #roalddahl

Happy Tuesday! Here are today's #Two4Tuesday questions. I asked this question several years ago; however, there are so many new Littens since then I thought it would be fun to ask again. All are welcome to play.

My answers:
📚 I'm most definitely a bibliophile. I would have even more physical books, but I am out of room..
📚 Tagged. I also thought Hermione from Harry Potter is an excellent choice.
Play? @dabbe @eggs @AnnCrystal @peaKnit @BethM

I have several large memory gaps from childhood, so this was hard to answer! This is my best recollection.

My favorite is The Witches by Roald Dahl. My 4th grade teacher read this to her class every year. She had an epic, powerful Grand High Witch voice. I remember hearing it echo down the hall in 3rd grade & hoping that I'd get Mrs. Abrams the next year. I liked reading before her class - I LOVED it after.

I‘m posting one book a day from my massive collection. No description, no reason for why I want to read it (some I‘ve had so long I don‘t even remember why!). Feel free to join in!
