After my move to a new school and classroom, I knew I would need to spend some additional time with my books: reviewing, weeding, resorting, and, of course, plenty of rereading. I was pulling books out left and right to share with new colleagues and new students … Books perfect for the beginning of the year. Books perfect for building community. Books perfect for writing. Books that I just love! As of right now, my classroom library is a mess with piles and stacks of books scattered. It will all come together, but in the meantime, I’m happy to be surrounded by books. But this made my task of picking just ten books even more difficult.


So, for one of my favorite days of the year -- which I do believe should be a national  
an international holiday with some bookstore sales and deals -- I selected one of my stacks:
New books that I CANNOT wait to share this year!

    I agree with you - although being from Canada, I would suggest it be an international holiday! This is a really fun list. The Book of Mistakes was also on my list. I LOVE Bears Don't Read. So much fun!

    Yes! An international holiday! :-) Lots of new titles on your list to me. I have the Knowing Book on my list, though, so that's familiar to me. I'm intrigued by the Book of Mistakes and Bears Don't Read!

    I don't know a few of these books so I'll have to check them out. I'm sure picture book sales must rise every Aug. 10th!

    I look for Bear books all the time, so am excited to see Bears Don't Read, new to me. I still need to read The Book of Mistakes, too. Time for an international holiday for sure! Best wishes in your new school, Michelle!

    The Knowing Book is one of my favorites--it's a hug for every reader.

{#sol15} deeper than beauty 8/31

The March Slice of Life Story Challenge hosted  at the  Two Writing Teachers Join us for a month of writing! I have twin four and a half -- almost five! -- year old daughters.  I try to be consciously aware of what I say and do in regards to my body image and self-esteem and also with their body image and self-esteem. First of all, because I don't want them to believe everything that society says is true.  Even if they don't fully understand it today.  In addition, because they are fraternal twin sisters, I want them to understand they are individuals with unique and different bodies that God created for each of them.   However, society -- including my loving family and friends -- tell a different story and harmlessly create a comparison war.   My girls constantly hear how beautiful, adorable, cute, fill-in-the-blank with any other
