    Top Ten Tuesday header

    There are thousands of books I can’t believe I’ve never read, but for this week’s Top Ten Tuesday theme, I decided to highlight just ten classic children’s literature titles that I’ve never read. While I’m familiar with all of these titles, I haven’t had a chance to read them yet.…

    It’s so hard to chose my favorite authors! I love all different types of authors for different reasons and at different times of my life. But, these ten books by these ten authors are ones that have stuck with me. I wanted to highlight some of my favorite middle grade…

    Top Ten Tuesday: Books With Occupations in the Title

    Top Ten Tuesday

    This was a fun list to pull together and I’ll be honest to say I started with a completely different list of books before pivoting to the list I pulled together below. Rather than choose ten different occupations, I decided to share ten books with the word “librarian” in the…

    Top Ten Tuesday: Books with a High Page Count

    Top Ten Tuesday

    This theme could also be labeled, “Books that would make great doorstops” because these titles are quite hefty! Almost all of the books I’ve selected are over 1,000 pages and are chunky. And I’ll be the first to admit, I’ve only actually read one of the books on this list…
