    historical fiction

    Historical fiction has always been one of my favorite genres. I love learning and with historical fiction the storytelling aspect makes me enjoy it all the more. I often find myself diving into further research about a time period after having read a book set during it. I’ve been really…

    2024 Blogging A to Z Challenge: Girl Characters

    girl characters

    This might look a little similar to a post from last week, just with female characters, rather than male. If you didn’t get a chance to see last week’s post, make sure you stop by for 12 additional adventure titles that you might enjoy. But, I’ll reiterate what I said…

    2024 Blogging A to Z Challenge: Fantasy

    Fantasy

    While dragons got their very own post, you can’t very well believe that I wouldn’t share a whole list of fantasy titles as well. And yes, there are more dragons, but they don’t all have dragons, I promise. While fantasy titles aren’t my go-to books, I still tend to enjoy…

    Look & Find Books for Kids

    Look and Find

    I remember as a kid pouring over our tattered copy of Where’s Waldo? It was so fun looking for Waldo, his friends, and all the things he lost among the pages. As I was working on this post, I found out that Where’s Waldo? is a British import that’s actually…

    2024 Blogging A to Z Challenge: Dragons

    Dragons

    There is absolutely no way that I could create 26 book lists about adventures without highlighting dragons in at least one of the lists. And there are plenty more dragon books out there, but I limited myself to twelve and was able to pull from picture books, chapter books, middle…

    2024 Blogging A to Z Challenge: Chapter Books

    chapter books

    Letter “C” is for chapter books! This is probably one of the most misunderstood terms in children’s literature, so let me explain. While most people use this term for any book with chapters in it that is geared toward kids, it’s actually a specific term. Unfortunately, it’s often misused online…

    2024 Blogging A to Z Challenge: Boy Characters

    boy characters header

    It’s day two and time for the letter “B”! And while my title is a little clunky, it’s written that way on purpose. I don’t adhere to the idea that there are “boy” books and “girl” books. Rather, there are books that interest readers. And yes, I know that some…
