Try Odd and the Frost Giants with the kids, though--it's excellent!

We adore this book.

I didn't like Wintergirls, either (and I like Chains, so I agree with you about Anderson as a writer).

Really? Hmmm. I guess nonfiction is a harder sell; also, I've found that sometimes the online community gets all excited about something that's not on other people's radar...yet. I hope they stock it now!

I definitely like Ramona better as she gets older! I found Ramona the Pest the most difficult to read aloud, too.

I'm glad you all liked this one, Angie--it's Elliot's favorite Clements book!

I have the sequel to this (Portrait in Sepia)--lmk if you'd like to borrow it and I'll bring it over.

Ack! I must get my hands on a copy of that Goldie book. I was a little surprised at how well-made Annabelle was, but maybe it was the handwork classes!

Could I borrow this? Seriously.

I feel the same way, Farida--it wasn't a compelling read, but I'm still thinking and wondering about it, a month or so later.

I'd like to read this, too--let me know what you think!

I just read this aloud to the kids, who loved it (almost) as much as I did. Minus the turtle tank chapters.

Okay, that would make it my next read. Thanks!

This one belongs on my "abandoned" shelf, too.

Oh! I can't wait to hear.

Nice review! I just wanted more Clarissa.

Stop by and check out my shelves if you need any more before you go, Laura--it'll be nice to visit before you go, too.

I'm on the hold list for this at the library, Laura--will keep you posted!

Our kids need to get together.

I read this book aloud four times in a row (at my son's first grade Readathon) and never tired of it. It's one of our favorites! I love Frazee's illustrations, too: the way everyone and everthing changes over time.
