Welcome to Litsy!

I've been cat-sitting for my son while he and his partner were visiting friends, and taking advantage of being in the city, I'm having breakfast at Gran T's in Ancoats.
I'm enjoying Gossip from the Forest, with its blend of nature writing & the author's riffs on fairy stories.
It's a two-bookmark-book: the red for the page I'm on, the black for the notes, in, If I do say so myself, an excellent example of #BookmarkMatching 🔖🔖😁

Sorry, wrong season, but still cute.

Next up... It has mixed reviews, which would probably have put me off buying it if I'd checked first, but I didn't so ...🤞

This book could make an excellent lesson on the importance of resilience and the ability to thrive where you are. This book would be an amazing classroom addition to a library.

The illustrations in this book were really good and I enjoyed the writing style of the author. It was also very interesting and would make a good addition to a classroom library.

We had our very first snow this morning, so we thought we should have #FirstSnowReadathon on Dec 1st and 2nd. This will be part of #WinterGames2024. Hosted by @StayCurious and @Liseworks. This is a good beginning to start our games. Have fun!

The first snow of the year! There had been some snow in Fairbanks and Anchorage, but today is the first for the peninsula.
