Twelve Dancing Princesses | John Cech

It‘s so much fun reading the different versions! Each one is slightly different. All the illustrations have been beautiful. Soon I‘ll start the Crown of Twelve: A Twelve Dancing Princesses Novella which is the 1st of the Crowns of the Fae Trilogy ( or novella + duology)
Thanks @TheBookHippie

The Twelve Dancing Princesses | Brothers Grimm

This was my favorite fairy tale as a kid because of Shelley Duvall's Faerie Tale Theatre. I watched her production of The Twelve Dancing Princesses countless times. I was so excited to find it on youtube:

I included a couple retellings in my photo. I'm reading Salt and Sorrows as a companion read. Kingfisher was from a few years ago.

The Ultimate Reading Challenge: Complete a Goal, Open an Envelope, and Reveal Your Bookish Prize! | Weldon Owen

Help a Litten out! I'm wanting to get back into reading challenges this year but I'm having a hard time figuring out what Litsy is hosting these days. It looks like a few I used to do aren't active anymore. Are there any I should know about? (I'm planning to do #bookspin with @TheAromaofBooks and #agathachristieclubR3 with @Librarybelle, of course!)

Picture of my dog's dumb teeth for tax!

TheAromaofBooks I'm participating in - #Pantone2025 and #FourFoursin25 with @lauredhel
- #WickedWords with @AsYouWish
- #Roll100 and #GottaCatchEmAll with @PuddleJumper
- #FictionalTraveler and #ReadorDonate with @julieclair
and my own other challenges, #ISpyBingo and #BookChain

Have you checked @LitsyEvents ? That account does a great job reposting all kinds of shenanigans!! 2w

Ruthiella You can follow @LitsyEvents for reposts of all the challenges, etc. Good luck! 😃 2w

AmyG There is #authoramonth @soubhiville where one reads 1+ books from that specific author for the month. #TBRTarot is where a card is chosen and you pick a corresponding book. #readyourkindle is like Bookspin but just for ereaders. Last two are with @Cbee (edited) 2w
