2024 Blogging A to Z Challenge: Kooky
This list of books was one of the most fun to pull together this month! It’s full of “kooky” titles a term I use with the utmost respect. I love to read books that are so far out there, I wonder, “How did the author ever come up with this?”…

2024 Blogging A to Z Challenge: Journey
Taking a journey is one of the specific parts of adventure stories whether it be geographical or personal. I talked about this a little more in the historical fiction post earlier this week. And the idea that while we like adventure stories to be action-packed and page-turning, but sometimes they…

2024 Blogging A to Z Challenge: Imaginative

While dragons got their very own post, you can’t very well believe that I wouldn’t share a whole list of fantasy titles as well. And yes, there are more dragons, but they don’t all have dragons, I promise. While fantasy titles aren’t my go-to books, I still tend to enjoy…

January’s read alouds received a number of reviews and even a comment (which doesn’t happen often!), so I’m back with a list of February read alouds filled with 29 picture books to celebrate important, wacky, sentimental, and silly holidays every day of the month! I’m not taking all the credit,…
