#WhatsNewWednesday @Alwaysbeenaloverofbooks @Readforlife @TieDyeDude Grandkids live in VA & from time to time I read a book to them via Marco Polo. However, I want to do it each day I have off. Instead of waiting until April 1st, I‘ll begin on Friday with the tagged book.

#NewYearNewBooks Day 16: One of the most profound picturebooks on #Refugees and asks this question: “What if I had to move from place to place? And the only things I could keep were what I was able to carry with me. What would it be like to live like that?” This is one story that pushes the envelope just a tad further, as international picturebook titles from Norway usually do.

@Readergrrl ... your lovely poem “Golden Retrievals“ made me think of this pic I keep on my desktop and look at every day to remind me of what's important. #perspective

Readergrrl @dabbe That‘s the perfect illustration for Doty‘s poem! 3mo
Readergrrl @dabbe I also see you‘re an English teacher too! I‘m seeing the light at the end of the tunnel for my retirement; I can‘t wait for more time to read books I want to read!! 3mo
dabbe @Readergrrl I am/was! I miss the actual “teaching“ part but nothing else. 🤩 I love that you're teaching poetry like this; kids will then not be afraid read poetry if they are engaged in a poem such as this one! All I've pretty much done since retirement is read. My house is in need of so much cleaning/organizing, but all I want to do is sit in my chair and read. 🤩😍🤗 3mo

Marilyn Singer's 'Mirror Mirror' is a captivating collection of reversible poems that tell classic fairy tales from different perspectives. Its innovative format encourages critical thinking, creativity, and a deeper understanding of narrative structure. This book can be used to teach about point of view, creative writing, and the versatility of language in storytelling.

“so I walked down the street to ask my neighbor for a cup of sugar, now this neighbor was a pig and he wasn't too bright either he had built his whole house out of straw can you believe it! I mean who in his right mind would build a house of straw!“

I love this book because it takes a different view on a classic tale. It takes the side of the “bad guy.“ I think this is a brilliant idea because everyone just assumes a person is bad.

This book is based off of the Three little pigs story but this time it is in the wolf perspective. The author makes the book a fun entertaining read. The wolf actually is just trying to be neighborly with his neighbors while having a cold.
