I’ve never been a shoe person. All my life, I’ve needed just handful of shoes to feel comfortable in any occasion. Need to dress up? Black pumps. Exercise? Sneakers. Is it summer? Flip flops. Winter? Furry boots. Have a class? Plain white flats. All purpose. No muss, no fuss.
Give me a Scholastic book order form, or a library card, and I’ll show you a smorgasbord of possibilities. Here’s my latest favorites organized by mood, snackfood and/or weather.
“What is the world coming to? Give me hope, please.” THE ONE AND ONLY IVAN – Katherine Applegate
“I’ll take two pink cotton candies with a side of ridiculous fun.” ATTACK OF THE FLUFFY BUNNIES – Andrea Beaty
It’s a small world… and all that….KINGDOM KEEPERS series – Ridley Pearson
Perfect for dreary, chilly afternoons. Blankie plus cocoa plus THE SCREAMING STAIRCASE – Jonathan Stroud
What’s your favorite book when you’re feeling sassy? I’m kinda digging MacBarnett & Jory John’s THE TERRIBLE TWO. Let me know what I’ve missed.
