So I think this is the children‘s book… I think it‘s meant to teach children the alphabet. I think this because it goes through the alphabet by using the child‘s name. What makes me question it, is the fact that it proceeds to tell you the ghastly way that child died. Super dark for an alphabet book.

RosePressedPages I was too curious and read it 🫣 wow that was so dark 👀 1w
mcipher It‘s so good! Gorey is hilarious and it‘s really more for weird grown ups (though my kid had a copy) growing up 1w

I created an A-Z challenge that includes everything you could want in an A-Z challenge. I also created graphics to accompany each letter of the alphabet on Canva.

My first finished letter is Letter C!
C~ Title = The Crash
C~ Author = Suzanne Collins for Sunrise on the Reaping
C~ Character = Calvin from The Last Trip
C~ Item = Cruthes On Scythe & Sparrow
C=COLOR BOOK TITLE WITH A COLOR WORD IN IT = Pink from Pink Glass Houses

*You might need a Canva Account since I used premium elements in it, though.

I chose these for Jace and I to read together for #foodandlit this month. The alphabet book was cute although kind of grim for a kid‘s book. Let‘s See Ireland was not my cup of tea. Does anyone have any good recs for children‘s books set in Ireland? 🇮🇪

GingerAntics Well, Ireland can be kind of grim. They‘ve been dealing with some stuff for like 900 years, thanks to the bloody English. I have a couple books of Irish fairytales I could recommend, but again they can be slightly darker than we usually think of when we think of fairytales. 3w

The Nollop Island citizens who #LoveLetters rebel as they are punished for using "Z" then "Q" then "J". Their written correspondence becomes more challenging, creating a hostile environment that causes some people to leave. When "D" is banned, the Council declares that anyone who has been banished or left the island will lose their property. A 2001clever cautionary tale worth reading again today. #FeelintheLove @Alwaysbeenaloverofbooks @Eggs

I spotted this while reading the New York Review of Books. This month marks the 100th anniversary of Edward Gorey‘s birth 🎂
At the end of last year, I saw an amazing exhibit called Journey to the World of Edward Gorey - I love his illustrations!

This was a fun read! @Blueberry got it for me for Christmas because I like the Regarding the Fountain books so much. This is like those, but not for 12 year olds and without illustrations lol.

Blueberry Happy you liked it. 😃 2mo
