Good afternoon all! I know the holidays get hectic, so I thought I'd go ahead and post our December reads. Plus it's always nice if you are stuck in a month that just isn't working for you to move ahead.

For December I thought it would be fun to each find our own Diary. There are so many out there. Of course, you can find one that is fictional as well as historical. Happy searching! Please share your reads with us.

Here's our December thread link:

I just somewhat randomly chose one from my own To-Read shelves to highlight for the month. I have another one from the American Revolutionary War and I might search for a Christmas oriented one as well. Anyway, this one is just to get you going. You don't have to read my selection.

I finally found one that I was looking for earlier. This one is part of a very interesting series of diaries found in the young adult section of the library. It's the diaries of children before they became royals around the globe.

by Ellen Emerson White Kaiulani: The People's Princess, Hawaii, 1889

I don't have that one with me locally or else I'd change the group book to it. :-)

Goodreads has a Listopia for Diaries!

I keep finding diaries all over the place!!! Here's another one from my own To-Read list. I share these because Christmas is coming and something series like the Dear America series can make nice Christmas gifts for little ones. :-)
