What A Wonderful World - done
Louis Armstrong

(view spoiler)[I see trees of green
Red roses too
I see them bloom
For me and for you
And I think to myself
What a wonderful world

I see skies of blue
And clouds of white
The bright blessed day
The dark sacred night
And I think to myself
What a wonderful world

The colors of the rainbow
So pretty in the sky
Are also on the faces
Of people going by

I see friends shaking hands
Saying, "How do you do?"
They're really saying
"I love you"

I hear babies cry
I watch them grow
They'll learn much more
Than I'll ever know
And I think to myself
What a wonderful world

Yes, I think to myself
What a wonderful world
Ooh yeah (hide spoiler)]

Thanks!

[Karin]

I came to update the first one I read for this on purpose and discovered I've also read one for number 40.

[Karin]

I've read three so far, which was a very good week for me since two of them weren't planned for this :)

[Karin]

I've read 4 so far and managed to read for numbers 1 and 2 in weeks one and two.

[Karin]

Six read so far and I read a book for #3 during the third week of the month.

[Karin]

Wow, so far 7 of the books I've read that work for this are in the same series! I had no idea it would be like that :)

[Karin]

Wow, I can't believe that I've read almost 1/4 of the books! Of course, I've only read for easier ones and had a wide open list :).

[Karin]

19 so far, but of course the hardest are yet to come :)

DISNEY NAMES Doc Grumpy Sleepy Bashful Happy Sneezy Dopey

Sesame Street

In Sesame Street, there were different versions of the Seven Dwarfs where each of them was made from Anything Muppets.


In Episode 4114, the Seven Dwarfs appear opposite Snow White (portrayed by Amy Sedaris).
The Seven Dwarfs consist of Clumsy , Vertigo
, Gassy, Itchy, Smelly, Sensitive-Nose, and Hammy.

"Snow White" episode of Grimm's Fairy Tale Classics, the Seven Dwarfs are named Sunday (voiced by Clifton Wells in the English dub), Monday (voiced by Kerrigan Mahan in the English dub), Tuesday, Wednesday (voiced by Tom Wyner in the English dub), Thursday, Friday (voiced by Michael Sorich in the English dub), and Saturday (voiced by Edward Mannix in the English dub) and are shown to be allied with a pack of wolves.

Snow White and the Huntsman

In Snow White and the Huntsman, the Seven Dwarfs started out as eight dwarfs when they are encountered by Snow White and Eric the Huntsman while fleeing Queen Ravenna.[17] The Seven Dwarfs are:

Beith (portrayed by Ian McShane) – The leader of the Seven Dwarfs. His name is the name of the first letter ("B") in the Ogham alphabet.
Muir (portrayed by Bob Hoskins) – The blind elder dwarf who possesses the powers of premonition and is the father of Quert. His name echoes muin, the name of "M" in the Ogham alphabet.
Quert (portrayed by Johnny Harris) – The son of Muir. His name echoes ceirt, the name of "Q" in the Ogham alphabet.
Coll (portrayed by Toby Jones) – The brother of Duir. His name is the name of "C" in the Ogham alphabet.
Duir (portrayed by Eddie Marsan) – The brother of Coll. His name is the name of "D" in the Ogham alphabet.
Gort (portrayed by Ray Winstone) – An ill-tempered dwarf. His name is the name of "G" in the Ogham alphabet.
Nion (portrayed by Nick Frost) – Beith's right-hand dwarf. His name is the name of "N" in the Ogham alphabet (sometimes given as nuin).
Gus (portrayed by Brian Gleeson) – A dwarf who develops a bond with Snow White. He is killed during an attack by Queen Ravenna's men where he sacrifices his life to protect Snow White. His name does not correspond to an Ogham letter.

I finally had a book relating to sea come up in a group read, so was able to use it without having to look for one :)

[Karin]

Bumping--4 more to go!

[Karin]

[Karin]

I finished!!!
