Welcome to Litsy!

I don't need much persuasion to be listening to #Finland 's national composer, Sibelius, but as it's his birthday today, it seemed rude not to mindfully do so.
Sibelius derived his Pelléas et Mélisande suite from his incidental music for Maeterlinck's play about the doomed love of the title characters. The setting is a decaying castle deep in the forest, which fits the mood of the book I'm reading, "Gossip from the Forest".

“ Rapunzel Rapunzel let down your hair.”

I would NOT use this book in the classroom because it‘s is violent and not a nice fairytale. There are other versions of the Rapunzel that would be better suited to a classroom setting, such as the Disney additions.

My friend is reading this one🤔.

I just got an Amazon delivery that said "liquids" on the package, which made me wonder whether Amazon can read minds (I wanted to order some alcohol for Christmas presents, but haven't yet).

Dear @CaroPi Thank you for the #HHS #HauntedHollowSwap package! The book sounds intriguing and I'm honestly amazed that it has rounded corners. The chocolate is perfect, especially since I've just made tea and was looking for biscuits. ?

while I love the brothers Grimm books I don't feel like I could have them in my classroom a they are kinda violent and not something I would feel confutable with the kids reading
traditional literature

This is an interesting work of psychology. It‘s a collection of essays inspired by Jungian theories of the collective unconscious and dream symbolism. Of course, Jung‘s essay is the stand-out of the bunch. I listened to this but got the paperback to reference images and interpretations of art. Very interesting book!
