Booktober day 22
Sleepy Hollow. Hard to separate the subject from Burton’s movie aesthetic
I'm lagging terribly with #MGBooktober and I promise to catch up because I love all the questions! Coming on today to selfishly promote the book I'm most excited for release in 2021 - my #ownvoices fantasy, REA AND THE BLOOD OF THE NECTAR!

Day 19 of #MGBooktober: There’s sooo much #mglit to look forward to in 2021, but EngiNerds Strike Back by @Jarrett_Lerner, A Place to Hang the Moon by @katealbus, When Life Gives You Lemons, Make Peach Pie by @erindowning, & Alone by @meganefreeman are all at the top of our list!
My fourth #booktober #drawing #challenge entry!
The book selected by @Elidust is

Day 13 #MGBooktober Graphic novels intimidate me so it's a goal of mine to read more of them! Eager to see others recommendations. Here are some on my tbr @EoinColfer @AndrewDonkin @rigano_giovanni @rainaqo @JamiesonV @thatlukeperson
Graphic novels are our jam, but our fave ever is Gabby & Gator by @jamesburksart. This is *that* book for us- the one that started our fangirling for #graphicnovels. (And the updated G&G releases in one week- we ordered multiple copies already!) Yay for Day 13 of #MGBooktober! 🐊
Day 12 of #MGbooktober. It has a title that suggests silliness, but this book by @nesbo_jo is so much more than that. It has a lovable protagonist, a delightful plot, and a good message.
#MGBooktober Day 11 This is tough-we've always been a readaloud family (even though the kids are getting older)
But today I will say that these books are some of our favorites because my kids love hearing words, names & phrases that represent the different sides of who they are!
#MGBooktober Day 8 -- My favorite genre of middle grade is contemporary stories that include a speculative element. Humor and a strong voice are other big draws for me.
Our favorite middle grade genre is an impossible task because it totally depends on our moods! But since we are always ready for a funny book, here’s a shout out to a few of our laugh-out-loud faves for Day 8 of #MGBooktober: The Real McCoys, Bernice Buttman, & Beatrice Zinker!
Okay so the #MGBooktober Day 7 prompt was probably the hardest so far but I decided to go with a whole bunch of Mikes who have written great graphic novels: @MikeLawIllustra, @Mike_Cavallaro, and @MikeCurato. #kidlit #comics
#MGBooktober Day 7: LOVED these books from @kellyiswrite and @jamiesumner_ 📚❤️

#MGBooktober, Day 4 I LOVE @KirstenWLarson's non-fiction books! I found her when I was looking for books about robots, then I convinced my school to buy her Freaky Nature books and I pre-ordered Wood, Wire, Wings - great author and Twitter pal!
Day 4 of #MGBooktober.
There are a few nonfiction books for kids that I’ve really loved. History Smashers by @KateMessner has been really great this year.
Also LOVED Shark Lady by @Jess_Keating.
Really enjoyed The Story of Barack Obama by @TonyaLeslie3.
