Welcome to Litsy!

You all! This book is an experience! I listened to the audio production while reading a physical copy with illustrations. You'll miss out if you only do one or the other! I didn't expect a story of two sycamore seed siblings to be so epic. I'm rarely emotionally moved by a book, but this one did it! 🙌🏼

“ This is the best day ever, I think.”

This would be a great book for students to encourage them to cheer on each other. Student could write how they support on another and are each others “ child leaders”. Good way to build a strong community.

Week 3: Graphia! Super cute book with nice illustrations. Sends a great message to students about sending positivity. Love the characters in this book. Published April 7, 2020.

Another delightful gem that I somehow missed when I was growing up. A small town family lives in a rented yellow house. Their life shifts when the house is put up for sale by their landlord. Each little adventure from a dancing dog to hiding in a bread box is incredibly sweet. I particularly loved the unplanned field trip of the little kindergarten who hopped on a local train.

“Kindness is not weakness. To be kind in this unkind world is walking through a battlefield without armor or sword. It takes courage and strength to be kind.”

Pretty good reading month in august

A very short but engaging adventure packed with great characters and fine emotions. Imaginative and sweet.
