MMmmmm, old book smell. 👃🏻♥️📚😌
Tomorrow (Wednesday) is discussion day for this month‘s #LiteraryCrew #BuddyRead ! Zeke had his visit with the specialist today with a medical procedure to determine things tomorrow, so I will post at some point during the day—the specialist is over an hour away from me, and he has to be there early morning with a pickup time in the evening.
I will tag everyone to let you know the questions have been posted!
1. I keep a spreadsheet with all of our books and recently realized that we have over 2,000 books in our collection! That doesn‘t include audiobooks. We do have a dedicated library but it can‘t hold everything. 😳
2. The tagged novel was so good! I really enjoyed the audiobook and I‘m definitely going to read more by this author. 😉

I read this one many years ago with my older two boys but recently read it with my 9 year old. She loved Ivan‘s story. She‘d get upset that we had to stop any time that she felt it was a cliff hanger. I love how she gets so into a story & loves reading every night. It‘s a sweet but sad story to view life from an animal(s) perspective- Ivan, Ruby, Stella, Bob.
This was the coolest thing ever. The town next to me had massive flooding several years in a row. They decided to move the library to higher ground. The route they had to take, the corners they had to turn, the bridge they had to go over….and they did it. Check out this video of the move.

Such a sweet book about a girl named Unhei who moves from Korea and is trying to fit in. Her classmates and teacher‘s kindness help her see that her name and heritage are not something that will keep her from making friends in her new school.
