pickThanks to @vivastory I read this bizarre, lovely, whimsical novella (audio highly recommended!). I‘m impressed that such a short, surreal book contained this lush, evocative world with characters I actually cared about. Playful tone, communal customs, and quiet acceptance of iDEATH's strange, functional utopia (color-changing sun, pleasant people-eating tigers) was surprisingly wholesome? And it feels fresh, despite being written 60 years ago.👇🏽

pickI really love this book and Grace Lin‘s other books in this series. They explain math concepts to very young children in an unusually (maybe uniquely) respectful way. This one is about how different things are different sizes. #kidlit #boardbook
so-so3 ⭐
Another beginning math concepts simple book. This time Olivia is trying to find what fits perfectly in her basket. It looks at the concept of size.
1. First thing to come to mind...”Eat us! Hey, it‘s Thanksgiving Day!” #sorry
2. I‘m all about the sides. #veggies
