Library Loot #20
Submitted by Book Nut
I put about a dozen books on hold that will be in next week. Plus the girls are out of school. I hope I’m ready for summer…. (You should see my pile for the 48 hour Reading Challenge; I’ll put it up before the challenge starts next week.)
For A/K:
I decided that since summer is coming on, and it’s a challenge getting the new books — they’re usually gone — that what I’d do is have one of the girls pick a letter and get random books from that section. Today’s letter is S (with a couple others thrown in). ![]()
Dinosaur vs. Bedtime, by Bob Shea
The Frog Prince, Continued, by Jon Scieska/Illus. by Steve Johnson
Pete’s a Pizza, by William Steig
Cowboy Ned & Andy, by David Ezra Stein
Daisy and the Beastie, by Jane Simmons
Little Beauty, by Anthony Browne
Edwina, The Dinosaur Who Didn’t Know She Was Extinct, by Mo Willems (Requisite Mo Book)
A Day at the Beach (Requisite Dora Book)
For C:
Phineas L. MacGuire . . . Blasts Off! (From the Highly Scientific Notebooks of Phineas L. Macguire), by Rances O’Roark Dowell
Coraline, by Neil Gaiman
(Both of these are an experiment to see if we can find something else for her to read, especially now that she’s finished the Gregor the Overlander and Percy Jackson series…)
For M:
Nation, by Terry Pratchett (thought Hubby might want to read this, too)
Trickster’s Choice (Daughter of the Lioness, Book 1), by Tamora Pierce
Trickster’s Queen (Aliane), by Tamora Pierce (I seem to recall that she’s read these before, but I’m not sure. And it doesn’t cost anything to check books out!)
Storyteller, by Edward Myers
Bloodhound: The Legend of Beka Cooper #2, by Tamora Pierce. (I put the first one on hold, and will pick it up next week. I figured I’d better get the second one just in case it’s not there next time!)
For me:
Manga Shakespeare: The Tempest, Illustrated by Paul Duffield
The roundup is either at Out of the Blue or A Striped Armchair.
*Ones that M eventually read.
**Picture books we really liked.
