#startswithQ

I was a weird kid. I was obsessed with this miniseries when it premiered on February 14, 1993. It featured a 26 year old Halle Berry before she became a huge star. I then spent that summer lugging a hardback copy of "Roots" and then, this book, to the city pool every day to read instead of swim. Haha. #maybookflowers #startswithq #weirdkid #priorities

I missed a couple days of #maybookflowers, but I think this one covers both the days I missed. 😊I loved this book when I was a kid--it's about a girl who's obsessed with animals (she imagines everyone around her as various animals) who finds a magic coin that grants wishes. The cover on the right is the one I remember from childhood; the one on the left is my copy now--the only cover I've been able to find (so ugly!). #StartsWithQ #obsession

emtobiasz Love Dick King-Smith! 7y
BarbaraJean @emtobiasz Yes! He was one of my favorite authors when I was little! This book's probably my favorite of his. 😊 7y

ValerieAndBooks I have the same book you have (black/white spine). I've seen some of her exhibits in the past and was very excited to finally visit The Dinner Party in Brooklyn a couple years ago 😊! 7y
ValerieAndBooks And one called Embroidering our Heritage, which is also about The Dinner Party. I also have 7y
Betty @ValerieAndBooks I'd love to go to Brooklyn to see the exhibit. 7y
ValerieAndBooks I hope you do someday 👍! As you probably know, it's now a permanent part of the Brooklyn Museum. 7y

#StartsWithQ Not too many Q books on my shelves. I've seen mixed reviews on this one. I thought it was good. Also, I love the cover. #MayBookFlowers @RealLifeReading

Hobbinol I've wondered about this one too, but I've been scared off by some of the reviews! 7y

#eyesoncovers #booksaboutmothers #fruit and #startswithq with Hermione thrown in there to represent the Harry Potter series for #obsession 🤘🏼 Skipping #limerick because I don't think I have anything beyond Shakespeare for that.

I haven't seen anyone post about this series or this title for #startswithq. This is the sequel to Fair Coin, which is a trippy story about changing your fate/life. The main character ends up with a magic coin and is able to make changes to his life by wishing on it. It's darker than it sounds. I haven't read this one yet, but really liked the first book. Such a weird and inventive concept and execution. 👍
