#childrensclassicread2025

First time reading this fairy tale. I didn‘t get to Grimms original tale but I read these two, the tagged one the better of the two as it felt more in the spirit of a Grimms tale. I enjoyed the illustrations more in the non tagged book but the tale was very simplistic and more cutesy.

TheBookHippie Oh fun!!! 6d

Snow day! May not seem like a big deal for people in the North, but we don't get this much snow in Houston....like ever. It is quite peaceful to sit here with my book and coffee and watch the giant flakes fall from the sky

AmyG Wow! It does look pretty. 3w
wanderinglynn Snow in Houston?! 😳 It is pretty though ❄️ 3w
lil1inblue Wow! That's beautiful, though. Enjoy your snow day. ❄️❄️❄️ 3w

Our first snow day of the school year…and it kinda sucks because it‘s also the first day of assessment week…which means everything pushes ahead a day. 🤪 Still, I am hoping to get a pile of marking done and maybe finish my current read and make some cupcakes to bring to the kids tomorrow. I have already shovelled, but will have to go back out once the plow has come along.

Deblovestoread So lovely! It‘s currently 28° here. I feel like if it‘s going to be this cold there should be snow on the ground. The good news is the sun is shining instead. 3w

Oh @LeahBergen what a wonderful parcel! Well worth the wait! 😉 Thank you so much! Thrilled with the books! (So pleased to have a Handheld Books edition as I eyed them for years but never purchased one!) Love the card, the post card, the bookmark, the whole kit'n'caboodle. ☺️ And curious if you would recommend visiting Mankato?

Crinoline_Laphroaig I loved visiting Mankato a few years ago! 3w
rubyslippersreads I‘ve visited Mankato a couple of times. You can tour Betsy‘s and Tacy‘s houses, and sit on the Friendship Bench. It‘s a pilgrimage for #BetsyTacy fans. 3w
LeahBergen Yay, it arrived!! I really enjoyed my visit to Mankato and seeing all the little spots from the books. And just what @rubyslippersreads said … the house tours were so fun! 3w
Cathythoughts Lovely 🥰 3w
MaureenMc There‘s a Betsy-Tacy Convention in Mankato this year, in October. My daughter & I are hoping to attend! 3w

PSA: This is NOT book related. 😂

This is the view from my front porch this morning…8 inches here in North Alabama.
I know, I know…but this is a BIG DEAL for us southerners, folks. 😳🤍☃️

I always forget how silent and peaceful the world is after a snowfall. ❄️❤️

Tamra 🤔 This is where Minnesota‘s snow went - I think it got delivered to the wrong address. 😂 (edited) 1mo
julesG @Tamra Someone mixed up post codes? 1mo
Cuilin @Tamra @julesG we‘re also missing some snow in New England. I can see green grass. 🤔 1mo

robinb @TheBookgeekFrau Exactly! 😳 1mo
kspenmoll We have basically no snow so far this winter- maybe 2 inches so far here in CT- I never thought I ‘d say I miss the snow, but I do! 4w
robinb @kspenmoll Oh wow! This will probably be with us a few days. Even after some melting we‘re having refreezing overnight until the temps moderate. It‘s always a nice surprise for us. 😊 4w

First (of three) books done. Love this movie and, it goes without saying, the Lego is super fun. I think it might be time to go watch the movie again…

Happy Halloween, Litsy family! 🧡🎃🧡

I hope everyone had a great day filled with spooky vibes, lots of treats, and of course - a ton of reading! 🤭 I finished Incidents Around the House by Malerman today and WOW. It was probably one of the scariest books I have ever read! 😱 It was absolutely the perfect book to finish on halloween!

AnnCrystal 🥳🎃💃💝 Hope your Halloween was spooky fun! 3mo
