I know it is not super holidayish, but it fits well with my gerbread theme. I love how there is a devious fox in her as well.

1. So many favorite authors; too many to name. Favorite illustrator is Garth Williams, hands down.

2. Summer reading is moving slowly this year. I'm finding myself too drawn to social media and I need to keep away from my phone!

3. Ballad of Songbirds and Snakes, Watch Us Rise by Renee Watson, Hood Feminism by Mikki Kendall, Well-Read Black Girl compiled by Glory Edim.

1. Dogs!
2. MAMMOTHS!
3. Ring-necked pheasants, which I know is the most random phobia ever. To make things even stranger, I'm mostly okay with them when they're alive; it's the dead ones that terrify me.
4. Nothing; I'm not Indigenous. And listen, I know Western culture socializes us to embrace appropriation, but if you're also not Indigenous nothing is YOUR spirit animal, either.
5. Maybe a crow?

Figured you guys might appreciate this - a friend/coworker is having a baby and I'm throwing a surprise "Baby's First Books" shower ??

If you were to recommend a children's book, what would it be?

#myfirstbook ❤️😁 I'm pretty sure I still have it memorized
