THE CHILDREN OF GREEN KNOWE is one of those books that loomed large in my childhood because it both entranced and confused me. It‘s been sixteen years or so since I last read it, so when it showed up as a December bonus borrow on Hoopla I figured it was a sign. Now here I am, glorying in how creepy and joyous it is.
The lamppost has nothing to do with the book, really, but I saw it on NYE and it delighted me.
I created a new series challenge for 2026! #reading #challenge #2026 #series
pickA story of finding a cow that becomes a story of finding Sam Vimes while we meet many people of Ankh Morpork.
This was absolutely charming! I laughed out loud at several places, and I just adored when Lady Sybil shows up. This whole thing shows off the amazing growth we‘ve been seeing in Vimes over the last few books, and I adored this.🌕🌕🌕🌕🌑
Okay, fellow #FictionalTraveler friends, where is everyone headed for our January #AnimalKingdom prompt? I‘m headed to the lovely world of The Wind in the Willows. Believe it or not, I‘ve never read it!

Finished Sunday for #BobWhiteBuddies I kinda sorta remember this one from my childhood. A bikeathon through the preserve to raise money for the high school art program that stops at Mrs. Vanderpoel‘s for her cookies & Mr. Maypenny‘s for hunter‘s stew? Sign me up! Trixie & the gang (with Di & Dan along for most of it) have to also solve a potential counterfeit ring & figure out who wants to stop the fundraiser. I liked ⬇️

#CHILDRENSCLASSICREAD2026 JANUARY
I know, I know.. Easter in January.
Cheerful is a mouse who longs to live in the country described in a song his mother sings.
I think longing for peace and where you feel at home is universal -no matter your religion or faith or ethos.
Year SEVEN 👏🏻🩵📘💙ALL WELCOME
