I’m a huge fan of this book! The rich vocabulary, the similes, the culture of the main character, the bird metaphor, the illustrations, all make it a superb book and a fantastic read aloud!!! #vareads
I saw this title (The House on Mango Street) in an article about banning books and remembered it was in my “read someday” pile. This book should be reissued as a novel in verse, each “chapter” is a poem. I enjoyed soaking in the words. What’s on your read some day list? #skybrarian #vareads
Remembering time this day (a few years ago) when I had an author visit from @wendyshang.bsky.social and we realized we went to the same high school two years apart! #authorvisit #skybrarian #schoollibrarian #vareads
Alright I’m ready to give this a go. Blue skies here we come! #schoollibrarian #librarians #vareads
Oof! Oof!! Oof!!!
Excited to see The Misfits #1: A Royal Conundrum on the VA Reads List alongside these awesome books!!!
