Diary of a Young Naturalist | Dara McAnulty

#currentlyreading for my teacher librarian book club. Apparently it‘s divisive... we shall see. #memoir #spectrum #naturalworld #hardback #family #conservation #environmentalist #Ireland Plus #spikyplant that cut me. #ouch

Libby1 Hi! I‘m reading this right now. Can you please tell me how it‘s been divisive? I can‘t see anything in it yet to cause concern. 4y

Missusb Gosh. Uhm..I wrote that a long time ago before I read it. I think I read some reviews on Goodreads that mentioned his age and his autism. But yeah. I didn't find it a problem. I loved his voice. And he just won a huge environmental award in Ireland with it. 4y

Rachel: The Story of Rachel Carson | Amy Ehrlich

My messy desk, which weirdly is bringing me a moment of joy.

Even when I‘m having the shittiest day & I‘m sick of driving, & I want to murder my coworker & throngs of young children (who doesn‘t feel that on a sporadic basis? 😅🔪), I have to remember that my job is such that my desk can be covered in books about phosphorescence, optical illusions, & novels filled with gorgeous words, & it‘s considered “work.”

Things are never all bad, are they?

Slajaunie I love that! What is you profession? 7y

monalyisha Thanks @Slajaunie 🤗! I work in what I refer to as a “shape-shifting library.” It‘s an elementary school library during the day & a public library after school lets out. 7y

Slajaunie @monalyisha I love it! That must be a fun and challenging job. I have never heard of such a thing. Where is this wondrous library? Books all day though! 7y

monalyisha @Slajaunie It‘s in Massachusetts. It‘s definitely a unique program! 7y
