Welcome to Litsy!

It's old-fashioned and preachy, but I never get tired of Alcott's fiercely feminist story and four of my fave ladies: Meg, so good and proper, yet a little vain; Queen Jo, "a girl who was rapidly shooting up into a woman, and didn't like it" (was ever anything so relatable?); Beth aka Little #Tranquility, so-called by Useless Mr. March; and Amy, "a most important person- in her own opinion at least." #BlueCover #JumpIntoJanuary #InspiredNewYear

#Tranquility
rain, home, snuggles with Fiona, reading = tranquility

#SundayBuddyRead Discussion Sunday!!

We could use some #tranquility today, and a book with a #bluecover is a good start.

A morning reading to cultivate #tranquility before a day of wrestling with two Google classrooms and only one computer.

I highly recommend this book! One of my faves! A beautiful blue cover, but the book-Without-jacket is just as beautiful even if not very blue. Blue symbolizes #tranquility and this book promises that by the beautiful writing

#InspiredNewYear Day 7: There is #Tranquility when you plant the seeds of compassion. Told in the voice of His Holiness, I never felt that he was talking down to his young readers. And while he was ostensibly sharing life lessons on compassion and kindness, I did not feel that the story was particularly preachy nor didactic, even though of course it had that moral intent to teach virtues.
