Books I have read and blogged about this week:
(but none of them were about frogs)
Birds

Balarama






Two Bad Ants
Rocking in my School Shoes






Miss Moore Thought Otherwise
Barnum's Bones







What I am reading and listening to:
I like to read a book and also listen to it a second time in the car or as I am writing my blog posts (like right now).



by Kami Garcia and Margaret Stohl



This is a very well crafted book trailer that came out long before the movie. I think the creators did an excellent job of providing a glimpse into the story of Beautiful Creatures.

..and of course-the movie trailer. I haven't seen the movie yet. I am one of those book people that must read the book first before seeing the movie. 

Awesome new arrivals in my school library!

I will be reading these next week. 

 So glad to finally have Mr. Wuffles in my school library!

I am looking forward to the holiday season ahead. Such a great time to snuggle in and read my heart out. Happy reading to you all.

    I have been hearing wonderful things about Mr. Wuffles. I need to get my hands on a copy! I'll have to check the public library. Thanks for sharing.

    I love Two Bad Ants for talking about perspective. It took me forever to find the hidden dog in that one though.

      Beautiful Creatures is so interesting that I find myself thinking about it throughout the day.

    I'm intrigued by Beautiful Creatures - one of my good friends recommended the movie to me. I should check it out soonest. Barnum's Bones also caught my eye. Will have to be on the lookout for that one.

      I read it on Net Galley a few weeks ago. It was Ok, not quite what I like in a twisted fairy tale.

      Thanks. I took a peek at it on Amazon. It's cute..I'll try to get my hands on one to take a look at. Thanks again for the Dead End in Norvelt advice!
