I am doing a happy dance right now because today is National Book Lovers Day. If that isn’t right up my book shelf, I don’t know what is. I truly enjoy writing about books I’ve read and sparking (I hope) interest in other readers of all ages. But I also get excited about books I haven’t read yet either because I haven’t had time or because the titles are not yet published. So for this column, my focus is on books that I’ve added to my TBR (To Be Read) list, and when time allows I’ll be fully engaged in each and every wonderful title.
“First Day Critter Jitters” by written by Jory John, illustrated by Liz Climo.
Liz Climo is one of my favorite cartoonists (her animals are adorable and hilarious), so I can’t wait to read Jory John’s picture book about those first day of school jitters. Will there still be jitters if schools resume online instead of in person? The first day is still the first day, so I’m guessing yes.
“The Museum of Whales You Will Never See: And Other Excursions to Iceland’s Most Unusual Museums” by A. Kendra Greene.
