so-soThe Tin Man remembers the girl he promised to marry & goes on a quest to find her. W/ the Scarecrow, a boy named Woot, & an enchanted Polychrome, they‘ll face many weird & wonderful things in Oz.
I love the buddy road trip & the friendship, but I forgot that this is the book that introduces the fact that nobody ever changes or dies in Oz. Babies stay babies, the old stay old, & your chopped up body parts remain alive independent of you.🌕🌕🌗🌑🌑
pickI'm finally caught up, fellow #BobWhiteBuddies! (And I need to come up with a better storage solution for these TB books, since we still have quite a lot left.) This one was pretty good, even if I never did understand how the wheelchair bit at the beginning connected to the rest. I liked the storyline with Hallie and Trixie. I hope we see Hallie again later in the series.

Finished a few weeks ago for #EBBR & as usual I returned my library book before doing a review.🤷🏻♀️I have to go with the others who think this one was a bit “meh.” I didn‘t find any of the mysteries that great or memorable except for Smelly Nellie which I did get correct, not because I know much about whales but because I caught a detail in the reading. I missed the ones about space & the axe handle but got the rest.

Read this aloud to Polly quite a few years ago and decided it would be a good series for Beatrix and I on the commute.
I enjoy Brontë‘s voice - both the actual narrator‘s voice and her view of the world. She is bright, funny and quite English. Her quest to visit her ten aunts in accordance with the instructions in her parents‘ magical will is fun and a little silly. And it is long, making it good value on audio.
We went to a big used book sale yesterday and here's the kids' book haul - just look at all those Beatrix Potters! I can't resist a collection, especially at a super great price.
Not included in this stack are a baby shark colouring book and an Aladdin story/etch a sketch combo thing, both of which my kid found way too cool to let out of her hands.

I love the #beautybreak idea, thanks @ImperfectCJ !
Joining in with one of the backyard bunnies nomming on my geraniums.
(Thankfully a much more sedate bunny than the bunnies in the tagged book, currently one of my 3 yr old's favourite library check outs)
