This was a clever story about a boy who has a giant snake in his room. His parents don't believe him even when he gets swallowed up by the snake. Funny and witty. Love the illustrations throughout.

In a time of hate
Love is an act of resistance.
In a time of fear
Faith is an act of resistance.
In a time of misinformation
Education is an act of resistance.
In a time of poor leadership
Community is an act of resistance.

In a time like this
joy is an act of resistance.
Resist. Resist. Resist.

Madame Badobedah | Sophie Dahl

I‘m about to whistle through some picture books by celebrity authors for #BBRC. Count yourself warned.

This was gorgeous and gorgeously odd. One of those where the pictures couldn‘t be more perfect for the text. A tale to read aloud for older picture book readers (5-8 maybe).

A mysterious old lady comes to stay in Mabel‘s parents B&B. Despite a rocky start, they end up sailing pirate ships, meeting mermaids, and becoming firm friends.

rockpools Does Sophie Dahl count as a celebrity author? I knew of her as a TV chef & Roald Dahl‘s granddaughter. She used to be a model. She‘s done been a journalist and author for years, apparently. This definitely has elements of the Dahl weirdness, but is really quite touching. 6mo
LibrarianRyan Lovely. I still have about 10 pages of reviews from last month on the same thing. I was just readying them to post after lunch. Hope you have been reading some good ones.

4.5 ⭐Once again, this man hits it out of the park. I wish he would write more children‘s books. He has such a creative mind and such a way with words. In this book, our character gets a new teacher. The new teacher is kind of gruff and our main character goes into some pretty crazy stories. But how much is true how much is not? Weird Al can tell a story, whether he‘s rhyming them to polka music or putting them in a book, this man makes words

LibrarianRyan that adult and children want to listen to. And when you read his books, they sound like him. I love that about his writing about this book and his other one. Please Weird Al write more books. 6mo

⭐ 🌟 ⭐ 🌟5 ⭐
There is a reason this author has a Caldicott. The illustrations in this book are phenomenal. It‘s the illustrations that make the story. A child is playing at home with their parent. And the other becomes the ocean and the story moves from there. Who needs to do housework when you can play pretend. This is a fabulous story that while simple will have a place in the heart of parents who read it to their children.

A beautiful and delightful tribute to art, imagination, creativity and the city of New York. I love to discover dialogue free books, purely visual storytelling, There's such a wealth of possibilities, I feel like there's so much more to explore and experiment with in such a medium that there should be more out there than I've found. Happy to take recommendations!
