pickSomebody points out to the Tin Man that he never reconnected with the girl whose love caused him to be chopped up and turned to tin. Time for an adventure! The usual random bizarre assortment of creatures and places await. I appreciated Baum explaining a bit of the history of Oz becoming a fairyland where no one dies, though as a mom I‘m horrified at the prospect of babies staying babies forever. Then again, if they can‘t die, maybe not so bad?
The tagged book is my first memory of loving a book. I still have my childhood copy. Unfortunately it shows some wear and that I possibly wasn‘t as kind to books as I am now 😢

Today was a real cluster cuss! But I did take the survey and scored 17/45. Here are three favorites based on the circumstances of watching or other associations.
1. Fantastic Mr. Fox - saw it during a meetup with a group of friends
2. ET - saw it with my mom the summer a new theater opened in her town
3. Remember the Titans - my niece attended TC Williams High School (which has since been renamed)

pickRead this book of poems with my daughter. She's said it was "Good" and that this is her favorite book! She thinks a lot of the poems are really silly-for example, plants talking to each other is funny.
I also read this a lot when I was a kid. Fun to revisit the poems with my daughter.
August wrapped. Not the best books this month when Paddington is the only 5-star read!
