TheBookHippie @mrp27 I got a signed book and note from her with my fancy copy of Are You There God it‘s me Margaret from her Fla bookshop by mail. I‘d love to meet her. How lucky you did. My friend is at the LA festival this week! (edited) 3d

Lsmoore43 Yes. Donna Everhart, Kristin Harmel, Mary Kay Andrew, and Patti Callhan Henry at our library. Patti Callhan Henry I met twice. 3d

Why Am I Here? | Constance �rbeck-Nilssen

#NewYearNewBooks Day 16: One of the most profound picturebooks on #Refugees and asks this question: “What if I had to move from place to place? And the only things I could keep were what I was able to carry with me. What would it be like to live like that?” This is one story that pushes the envelope just a tad further, as international picturebook titles from Norway usually do.

Silver Bells: A Holiday Tale | Luanne Rice

🌲 Yesterday I started this moody book. It takes place in New York where many people are getting ready for #Christmas.
