Show & Tell

During the month of May, I participated in Middle Grade Carousel’s Book a Day reading challenge. This year I really wanted to read through Lemony Snicket’s A Series of Unfortunate Events, make time for some audiobooks I’ve been stockpiling, and enjoy some of the gorgeous graphic novels that have been calling from the home library shelves.

Quote of the Day
"She taught me to be more positive, to accept my blindness for what it was; not to embrace it exactly, but to stop feeling so angry about it all the time. She herself had been blind for most of her life, after some illness or other. She'd brought up two children, traveled half the world, and been an English teacher in a school in Manchester. All with no eyes." —THE SLEEPING SWORD by Michael Morpurgo

Quote of the Day
"People come in flavors. That's what I think, anyway. My mother is the flavor of mint—sharp and bright. My father reminds me of hot chocolate—sweet and full of gentle warmth. My name's Amy, and if I had a flavor, it would probably be lilac or pomegranate or something. I don't know. It's hard to judge your own flavor." —SPACEBOY by Stephen McCranie
