pickSai has grown up with a conman for a father, but her apprenticeship with a mapmaker gives her a chance to board a ship and explore a new land. A Newbery award winner, the story focuses on looking past first impressions and being willing to stand up for what's right. It also delves into family loyalty and the importance of love over power. A perfect read with my middle-grade kiddo and a fun adventure story for anyone!
pickCool book about the history of the lost forest. Basically, some surveyors back in the day were in the wrong part of the forest and only found a lake but not a forest. Therefore, this “lost“ forest was never on a map. Interesting history and nice illustrations.
I saw this picture of Bears on Facebook and wanted to share a personal story about what happened in my life. It didn‘t happen recently. It‘s been awhile since it happened.

pickInteresting and informative. Lots of fascinating details. I read this slowly over the course of several months, one State at a time. Now I know that the shapes of the States are not nearly as random as they seem!

I was just relaxing with a cup of wine at a theater down the street, reading the tagged story “Return of the Jedi: From a Certain POV“ when out of nowhere people started pouring in to meet some random guy. There was someone there taking pictures, a line forming to meet this guy, I'm giving him the side eye...he's not Chris Stuckmann who is releasing Shelby Oaks this weekend , but I eventually left & had to scooby doo it & it appears to be (CONT)
My family visited a “new” bookstore here in San Antonio with very old books.
I saw this picture on Facebook and wrote this about it.
