Top Ten Tuesday: Titles That Sound Like They Could Be Crayola Crayon Colors
I started writing up this post and searching for book titles with colors in the actual title before realizing that wasn’t the way I needed to look at this. Instead, I searched for interesting titles with just a single word or short phrase. I found that often the colors of…

Top Ten Tuesday: Books with Ocean Settings
So, I’ll be honest, I wasn’t really sure what this theme meant. The original theme was “Books I’d Gladly Throw Into the Ocean.” And I wasn’t sure if that meant in an “I don’t ever want to see this book again way” or something else. My partner suggested that I…

Top Ten Tuesday: Places In Books I’d Love to Live
I think every week, I mention how much I enjoy Top Ten Tuesday themes because it really gets you thinking about books differently. For this theme, I was kind of all over the place! I grew up in a very small town, have lived in the suburbs of some large…

Top Ten Tuesday: Funny Book Titles
Similar to Books That Made Me LOL, this was a fun list to pull together. I love silly books, especially picture books. There’s something absolutely amazing about reading aloud a picture book with a little one who can’t stop belly-laughing at a truly, funny story. Here are ten funny book…

Top Ten Tuesday: Characters Whose Job I Wish I Had
What I love about participating in Top Ten Tuesday is looking at books in a different way. And then combining books that would probably never be on the same list together. This week, I’m sharing ten picture books featuring characters whose job I wish I had. I took this theme…

Top Ten Tuesday: Books That Made Me LOL
I’m a huge fan of funny picture books! I especially love books that are as entertaining to me as a read aloud as they are to the kids I’m reading to. Not all funny picture books work well reading aloud to a large group, especially those that depend heavily on…

Top Ten Tuesday: Green Book Covers
Today’s task was to share book covers that are purple, yellow, or green in honor of Mardi Gras! Since I’ve already created both purple and yellow lists, I decided to focus on green covers today. I love book lists that come together in other ways that sharing a similar theme.…

Top Ten Tuesday: Picture Books About Self-Love
This week is a Valentine’s freebie for Top Ten Tuesday. There are so many directions I could take this – middle grade friendships or YA couples. So rather than create another typical “contemporary romance books” (which I love), I wanted to share some really great books for young kids all…
