May is actually harder on our budget and time than December, if you can believe it. We have three birthdays and an anniversary. Two of those birthdays belong to my children, and I like to share what books I'm purchasing for them every year. For LM (who turned 8 yesterday):  For Bit (who turns 12 next week; no one tell her): And a card that lets her know I've pre-ordered these for her: If you are wondering why Bit has two more and thinking that is unfair, it is because she is my voracious reader. LM is harder to please. I love giving books as gifts! What are some books you enjoy giving to others? </div> <a class='snippet-fade r-snippet-fade hidden' href='http://randommusingsofabibliophile.blogspot.com/2016/05/birthday-books.html'></a> </div>

The Door by the Staircase  by Katherine Marsh This is a story of a young orphan adopted and moved to a village where strange things happen and her guardian warns of tricksters. After making a new friend, Mary begins to wonder if she can trust her new guardian and what exactly is happening in the strange small village she now calls home. This is a lovely story reminiscent of many that have come before it, but that has its own special tone and feel. The characters are delightful and bring the tale to vibrant life. This is a great addition for any elementary classroom or library. The Girl in the Well is Me  by Karen Rivers This is an incredibly well done story about a girl who falls into an old well during a mean club initiation orchestrated by girls at her new school. Once Kammie is in the well, she has a lot of time to think about her life, and Rivers balances what is happening in the now with flashbacks Kammie ... </div> <a class='snippet-fade r-snippet-fade

I read MG as a teacher who wants to have great books to put in the hands of kids that will excite them about the world around them and what they can learn about it from books. I read MG as a mom with kids who I want to inspire and (at some times) protect. I read MG as myself just because it's some of the best literature out there and I love it. Sometimes the these three different roles of mine are in disagreement. More often than not they are in agreement. I usually am aware of all three roles whenever I am reading though. Rare is the book that comes along and makes me forget all of that and just live it. Some Kind of Happiness by Claire Legrand was one of those rare books. Finley Hart is spending the summer with father's family who she has never before met. Her parents are having problems and feel a couple of months to figure out their next step will be a good thing. Finley finds herself surrounded by cousins she has never met,... </div> <a class='snippet-fade r-snippet-fade hidden'
