pickThe sense of foreboding in the slim book was so well done! I worried at every turn of the page. Mary is sent off by her father to work for the Vicar and help take care of his ailing wife. Although the home she left was harsh and full of backbreaking labor she laments the lack of choice she is given. I won‘t lie, this book was bleak but I thought it was really effective. #24in2024
This story teaches the lesson that hard work pays off, with determination and perseverance, I would use this book as a fun way to motivate students to work hard
so-soThis book was about a man named Dick Whittington and his smart cat who are going to search to become rich, the cat is very got at catching rats which helps them in their quest
Just started this tonight and enjoying it more then I expected. Pride and Prejudice is one of my most reread books.... Can feel the itch to crack it open again starting now.
Thought the #pemberlittens might be interested in this interview with Jo Baker about her book Longbourn that the #hashtagbrigade read last year
Also I highly recommend this podcast in general, they just finished their read-through/discussion of P&P and I learned so much!
