If you knew the date of your death, how would you live your life? Picked this up because the premise is simply irresistible, and thankfully, the writing does not disappoint — I’m about 100 pages in and completely glued to this poignantly beautiful book! Have you read it? 📖 #theimmortalists #chloebenjamin #goodreads #bookstagram #ptbooksiread2018 #picturethisbook

A new #picturebook by Jon Agee is always a treat, but his creative use of the gutter space here, and the sheer delight that every page-turn brings, made this an instant favourite. . As this deceptively simple but timely #picturebook shrewdly points out, just as there are two sides to a wall, so are there to every story. And only by overcoming that metaphorical or literal wall, will we ever be able to see both sides. Brilliant! 👏📖 . #thewallinthemiddleofthebook #jonagee #kidlitart #kidlit #picturebooks #kidsbookstagram #toppicturebooksof2018 #picturethisbook

Set in 19th-century London, this gorgeous tale by @auxierjonathan swept me off my feet with its enchanting combination of historical fiction and magical realism. . The cold and bleak Dickensian setting and well-researched portrayal of the lives of chimney sweeps are gut-wrenching to read about, but the life-affirming thread of love and sacrifice that runs through the story will warm the cockles of your heart. We are huge fans of Jonathan Auxier’s masterful prose and beautifully wrought characters, and this book is a another classic in the making. 💜 . #sweepthestoryofagirlandhermonster #jonathanauxier #abramskids #middlegrade #mglit #mgbooks #middlegradebooks #chapterbook #ptmiddlegradebooks #ptbooksiread2018 #kidlit #kidsbookstagram #picturethisbook

It’s #WorldKindnessDay today and if you’re looking for a great #picturebook that introduces and explores different simple ways to “Be Kind” for preschoolers, look no further than this aptly named gem by Pat Zietlow Miller and @jenhillstudio that even grownups can learn a few things from. | Coincidentally our current read-aloud chapter book is #Wonder which I first read three years back. (Apparently my kids’ interest was piqued when their teachers separately showed them the movie trailer in school, so this is the first time they — not I — have chosen the chapter book to be read aloud.) We’re about halfway into the book and if it were up to my kids, we’d keep reading nonstop because they just can’t get enough of the story, which is by turns heartbreaking, funny and heartwarming, and a poignant reminder to “choose kind”. The icing on the cake, of course, is a family movie night after we finish the book, when we’ll all be watching the movie for the first time — can’t wait! p.s. Do you try to save book-based movies for after you and/or your kids have read the books too? 📖🍿 #worldkindnessday2018 #choosekind #chapterbook #readaloudrevival #bekind #rjpalacio #patzietlowmiller #jenhill #kidlit #kidlitart #kidsbookstagram #toppicturebooksof2018 #picturethisbook

So the husband read this super fun #picturebook illustrated by the awesome @verabee to the kids last night, and apparently they immediately thought of me — their personal unpaid, often taken-for-granted home librarian. Yep, pretty sure I’m doing something right if they see me as a bookish superheroine who takes on book-destroying villains 🦹‍♀️📚💫 p.s. Swipe to see some of the hilariously creative riffs on popular classics 📚 #lyricmckerrigansecretlibrarian #jacobsagerweinstein #verabrosgol #picturebooks #kidlit #kidlitart #toppicturebooksof2018 #kidsbookstagram #picturethisbook

It’s amazing how easily and completely children are able to immerse themselves in a world of their own conjuring, no matter how limited the space or how simple the materials they have at hand. So it was no surprise that when we read this cute #picturebook, my kids immediately saw themselves in the story — it’s almost uncanny how @kathyellendavis and @kaylanijuanita have captured the raw ingenuity and dynamics of their imaginative play both together and apart, and we loved poring over the little details in the illustrations that add so much more to the story. Indeed, the window of innocence and magic in childhood is small and fleeting, but having a sibling and/or friend(s) to share it with is a gift — double the imagination, double the fun! — and hopefully, they’ll always remember their brilliant Ta-Da! moments together 🌟 #tadabook #kathyellendavis #kaylanijuanita #chroniclecrush #kidlitart #kidlit #kidsbookstagram #imaginativeplay #picturebooks #picturethisbook
