Every once in a while I regret not pre-reading a library book. Then I end up crying and reading while I‘m snuggling my kid 😂
4.5 ⭐ This would be so much fun at story time. For me this would probably go on rotation. The cadence is masterful the rhymes all work. Add the illustrations in this book are close to perfect. It‘s funny it‘s entertaining. It has heat and not only will kids, but I and other adults will love it too.
A collection of humorous and spooky poems that appeal to kids‘ love of the bizarre and funny.
Invite kids to write their own “horrible” poems, encouraging creativity and playful language.
I was torn between pick and so-so. This is my 2nd read and my kids love it, but reading it out loud sucks. I love Roald Dahl and usually love his made up words but the giant only speaks in them. So my kids stop me from reading to discuss what does he mean? Eventually I just read the words he was intending to say so we could get into the story and just said some like phizzwizard.

Husband used to edit a sci fi newsletter and I met a number of sci fi authors when we attended some conferences. The most memorable was James Hogan mainly because I read some of his books. Skipping the super technical stuff, his stories were amazing (like the tagged). Also met Gregory Benford and Brad Lineaweaver. Probably more but this was in the 1990s and my memory fades
I‘d like to meet Lisa See & James Rollins
What a strange and bittersweet book. The friendships Peggy formed with James and his family were complicated and her emotional attachment to them strikes multiple chords.
In not sure if I‘ve ever read about a 8 foot tall person unless it was in fantasy. This really felt like historical fiction, I would believe it if told it were based on a true story.
@AmyG I feel like you might enjoy this one.

I love this book because it is very creative and there are so many activities that could go along with it. It is also very engaging as you can create actions and voices that go along with the story.
