Hairy Maclary from Donaldson's Dairy | Lynley Dodd

pick

Who doesn't love this book? Our 3 year old decided this was the book she was going to bring to preschool this past week for family literacy day - and I may have been more excited than she was. A fun rhyming book about Hairy Maclary from Donaldson's Dairy and all the other dogs around town.

James and the Giant Peach | Roald Dahl

After all these years I finally read this Roald Dahl. Although it isn't one of my favorites, it still has all the wonderful things I love about his stories.

The part I absolutely loved in this one is the ending and the song that tells everyone about how insects are helpful. It's a great way to teach young readers to be kind to bugs. 🐛🐞

Ruthiella I loved this book as a child, but I‘ve never read it since. now

Travels of Babar | Jean de Brunhoff

I'm just so excited that this little bookstore is still around. It isn't often you find a bookstore mainly dedicated to children and teenagers but Livres Babar has managed to stick around! My parents would take us every time we visited my aunt and uncle and I'd usually come out with a stack of 5-10 books! Livres Babar is located in Pointe-Claire, Quebec, Canada.

Congratulations @BennettBookworm on reaching 20K - and thank you for the #20kgiveaway

tpixie Oh how wonderful! I‘ll put it on my list of bookstores around the world. In Cambridge, Massachusetts, there‘s a Curious George Bookstore- owned by the authors ( at least originally).

Jess861 @tpixie Thank you!! I'll absolutely have to check this out if we are ever in or near Cambridge, Massachusetts! 5d

The Line Tender | Kate Allen

pick

This year I've been reading more MG books from my library and I highly recommend this one, especially for those who love the ocean.

A young girl, Lucy, is dealing with the loss of her mom, who was a marine biologist. A local fisherman catches a shark and this turns into a mystery that Lucy and her friend try to solve.

The writing is poignant, full of science facts, beautiful shark drawings, and a lot of heart. Loved it! 💚
