Such a cute book with adorable illustrations! 🐭 🏡
I finally read an archive book that @TheBookHippie shared the link of.
It‘s much easier to read on my computer than my phone. 🤩
I love the library card 🩵
Juniata College Library is now named L A Beeghly Library & Juniata College was founded in 1876 by members of the Church of the Brethren.

#Read2025

I finished this one last night for #ChildrensClassicRead2025 & it‘s a soft pick for nostalgia for the author. I found it too long & disjointed with it being separate stories really rather than cohesive chapters. It could be because I waited for the end of the month & was hurrying a bit but I had a hard time keeping track of all of the family & other characters. It did have some charming moments though.

TheBookHippie It is not my favorite of hers but like you some of the passages I really enjoyed! 2d
LeahBergen It‘s not a favourite of mine either but … you‘re right. Any LMM is usually good for a hit of nostalgia, isn‘t it? 😊 1d

#Naturalitsy #HyggeHourReadathon

Tonight‘s #HyggeHour is being spent with Marigold. Trying to finish this one for #ChildrensClassicRead2025 March. My drink is coconut tea & my snack is a haupia (coconut) cupcake. (Which is yum!) 😋

My mood is a little tired & wishing the weekend was longer as it will be another busy work week ahead.

#Naturalitsy #HyggeHourReadathon

My #HyggeHour is being spent with the tagged book that I saw on @TieDyeDude ‘s post & my library had. It works for #FoodAndLit #Ireland & looks adorable so I was happy my library had it. I‘m also going to start Magic For Marigold for #ChildrensClassicRead2025 I‘m also watching the new Shonda Rhimes series The Residence which is fun so far, drinking tea & having a couple cream soda Dum-Dums.

Not too excited ⬇️

DebinHawaii … that tomorrow is Monday & it‘s another busy week ahead with 2 trips to Hilo & the world at large (especially our country) continues to be a s@#% show, but otherwise I am okay. 😬 I do appreciate this #Hygge wind-down time on Sundays before the madness starts. 1w
TheBookHippie Shit show indeed… I like the pause as well. 1w
AllDebooks @DebinHawaii I'm so glad it helps reset you for tge week ahead. Honestly, I find it a real sanity saver. I've started incorporating it into routine on really stressful days. Even 10-15 minutes helps. 😊 1w

kspenmoll Deb, I hope last night‘s hygiene hour reset you for the week? It certainly helps me helps me with perspective and distressing. I hope this week with all its craziness gives you moments where you can breathe and feel calm. 1w

It was wonderful re- visiting a favorite childhood author. I have saved a couple of her books- oh my, could they be 50 years old?!. ( Stormy still has the cover paper!)
Sadly, I can‘t find my Misty of Chincoteague.
Thanks @TheBookHippie for a walk down memory lane. Now to start March‘s book! #ChildrensClassicRead2025

TheBookgeekFrau Thank you for the blast from the past memories! Between me and my best friend the Misty, and Stormy books were on constant rotation in and out of the school library ☺️ 3w
tpixie @TheBookgeekFrau yes! Such sweet stories!! I‘ve always wanted to go to Chincoteague! As a child I wanted to go, but I didn‘t want my heart to be broken that my parents wouldn‘t buy me a pony. As an adult, I was afraid to go with my children and say no to them! ( and myself! ) 3w

@Daisey reminded me of this book about rescuing the Lipizzans. Here is a Disney movie about it as well. - Based on another book, My Dancing White Horses by Colonial Podhajsky
Miracle of the White Stallions 1963 🤍🤍🤍

TheBookHippie I love this story. I‘ve read many books on it. My grandma‘s told me about it when I was younger. A few US circus companies saved them too, as well as Jewish performers- against the US policy. Not much changes … 4w

I‘m a little behind on my February reading for #ChildrensClassicRead2025 I love going down memory lane rereading a favorite book of mine and remembering when I got to watch The Great Lipizzan‘s perform. Here‘s an example of an Levade & a Caprriole- two Airs Above the Ground movements.
This book is a great way to learn about the horses and a fine example of self- actualization and working hard for your dreams.

lil1inblue I switched things up this month, so I'm saving this one for later. I'm excited to read it now! 1mo
TheBookHippie I loved this read so very much. 4w
tpixie @TheBookHippie it‘s very sweet, and informative! 🤍🤍🤍 4w
