Top Ten Tuesday: Non-Book Freebie
Today’s theme is a non-book freebie! And while I strayed a little bit away from books, I couldn’t completely go in another direction, so today I’m sharing literary or bookish jigsaw puzzles! I love working on a puzzle and while I enjoy puzzling, my sister is a puzzling master! She’s…

Little Kids, Big Emotions: Frustrated
There are so many emotions and happy, sad, mad, shy, and enthusiasm that I’ve already covered, but today I’m looking at frustration. This list was interesting to build because it comes across as almost two different lists completely. The first, is the list of books that could be used just as equally…

Top Ten Tuesday: Satisfying Book Series
I am not great at series and I’ll be the first to admit it! I’ll start a series and love the first book, but then it falls apart! Often, the rest of the series hasn’t been published yet and by the time the next book is published, I’ve often forgotten…

Little Kids, Big Emotions: Enthusiasm
There are so many emotions and happy, sad, mad, and shy, I thought it might be fun to look at something a little more difficult to explain, but an emotion that kids feel all the time – enthusiasm/excitement for things they love! Many kids go through the “why?” phase, others become passionate…

Little Kids, Big Emotions: Shy
Alright, so we’ve already looked at a few of the more “common” emotions, but our series isn’t over yet! So, after happy, sad, and mad, we’re now focusing on kids feeling shy. I think that shyness often encompasses a few different things for kids including quiet and introverted kids. They…

Definitely put a note on your calendar for October 7th because there are some amazing new books coming out that day from some big name middle grade authors! Without fully realizing it, the majority of my Fall 2025 TBR List includes books being released on October 7th from some of…

Little Kids, Big Emotions: Mad
We’re moving through emotions and I don’t want you to miss the emotions we’ve already covered – happiness and sadness. Today, I’m sharing books about being mad or angry, a feeling that kids can definitely relate to! I think this is such an important emotion for kids to understand. What…

Top Ten Tuesday: Bookish Candles
Today’s Top Ten Tuesday theme was officially “Literary/Bookish Candles I’d Make”, but rather than share ten ideas of candles I’d make, I thought it’d be cool to share some of the amazing bookish candles that already exist in the world (and would make great presents for your own book lover!)…

Little Kids, Big Emotions: Sadness
Last week we started this series with happiness and I figured that it kind of made sense to do sadness next. What I really like about these books is that while some of them teach kids about how to help a friend who is sad, many others allow the reader…
