1. Usually 3-4 times (workout clothes, daytime clothes, work clothes if I'm teaching or if I have a concert or meeting, PJs).
2. A favorite from my kids' little-kid days.

Irony: A teacher in my school district wants to ban this book because, well, it's about a plot to kill a teacher! 😱 Has she read the book? No. 🙄
Another teacher reference: If you've never seen this 1988 McDonald's commercial, you should. Have kleenex nearby.

so-soThat's right kids, be comfortable with your personal preferences and don't let the world dictate what you should be, or else the (body) HORRORS will be visited upon thee! 🤦🏼♂️ Camilla's transformation was unsettling but entertaining, but the way this author/illustrator paints people in general does not work for me. Do not think I'll be investigating his other work.
Yes, I do believe I would scream too.
Has David Shannon considered writing horror? 🫣
I appreciate the levels of creativity evident in such a surreal concoction, but was no one afraid they might traumatize the demographic that typically reads picture books?! 😬
Other than Nancy Drew, I haven‘t really read any middle grade since I was middle grade myself. However, this one came to mind. It‘s a brutal story about boys and violence. Some adults have a problem with it but kids don‘t, in my experience. They get it.

This reminds me how much I love Robert Cormier. I need to go back and revisit his books. 💜
Happy National Chocolate Day!
To play, tag a book with a chocolate theme or the word “chocolate“ in the title, answer the questions, and then tag and share!
I'll go first:
Favorite chocolate: Cadbury Dairy Milk Fruit & Nut
Favorite Halloween chocolate: Reese's peanut butter cups/pumpkins
