Welcome to Litsy!

And a marvelous Time was had by all. I particularly enjoy the Discworld rereads where it's only the second time through, and there are details I've forgotten that I get to discover all over again. Plotty bits, of course, but also just fun parts: transportation by Yeti, save points mirroring the video game sense of the term, the combat value of chocolate. 1/?

This was a great picture that depicted the bird flying through the times of the bones, back to when they were still alive. Great illustrations!

I chose this book to be so-so only because I myself have a hard time using my imagination and a book that is left only to the interpretation of the reader can be hard for me. But I also think that it is great for children to be exposed to this type of literature as it increases their imagination of the meaning behind the story. I would use this in a classroom library or even do a class workshop where the students tell me their interpretation.

Time Flies by Eric Rohmann is a picture book that was written in 1994 and selected as a Caldecott Honor book in 1995. This book is a picture book that depicts the travels of a bird though the ages of the dinosaurs. The book puts the perspective of the bird traveling through the assembled bones of the dinosaurs in a museum. The seemingly ancient relics come to life through the pages leaving the reader to interpret the story as they perceive it.

Emma doesn't mess around. And neither does Susan. 👏🏻😁

Matt Haig is a storytelling genius and I've loved everything I've read of his, but this is my new favorite. It slayed me.

This book could be incorporated into a history lesson about the prehistoric times.

Time Flies by Eric Rohmann, 1995. Caldecott Award Winning Book. This is an entirely wordless book with strong images depicting the prehistoric times when dinosaurs roamed. It shows images of dinosaurs and lifelike dinosaur skeletons. Very powerful message of how life on earth has changed.
