FALALALALA LALALALA.

Who else besides me is getting ready to buy the gift that keeps on giving?  Books for the holidays!

What books are you giving as gifts?  And what books for yourself are you sneaking onto to that Amazon order because, well, you have that free shipping anyway, right?

I love Mo Willems! Have you read the Elephant and Piggie books We Are in a Book or Can I Play, Too? The latter absolutely cracks me up. Judging by title alone, The Three Ninja Pigs would definitely be one I would want to read.

The False Prince is one of the books that has stuck out in my mind this year, probably from the main character's similarities to our Gen.

I liked, but didn't love Variant, but I adored The Girl of Fire and Thorns and its sequel, The Crown of Embers. I think I loved the second book even better than the first, which is the opposite of what usually happens with series/trilogies.

We Are in a Book is my favorite! My son loves it too. When we get to the part when Piggy leans in close and says, "Someone is looking at us." He giggles like mad and says, "It's me! I'm looking at you!" So funny.

I don't love Variant either, but some of my students will. I too liked The Crown of Embers even more than the first. I'm so excited to read the conclusion next year.
