Thank you! I was time zone confused.
Literary Buffistas 3: Don't Parse the Blurb, Dear.
There's more to life than watching Buffy the Vampire Slayer! No. Really, there is! Honestly! Here's a place for Buffistas to come and discuss what it is they're reading, their favorite authors and poets. "Geez. Crack a book sometime."
Bread Mage made me cry, too. I really enjoyed it, though.
I just got it ... looking forward to it! (and, since almost everyone seems to have sourdough starter, the paper - in its children's page - said kids could treat it like a pet ... it needs feeding and care ... but you never have to walk it or clean up after it).
Bread Mage was one of my absolute favorite books of the summer.
I've enjoyed everything of hers that I've read - a limited number, I have to admit. I look forward to exploring more of her writing ... I just have a large number of books on my e-reader. And, having just moved, a certain amount of my time has to be devoted to unpacking .... mostly books. sigh ....

I've been reading the Paddington Bear chapter books to ltc, and she loves them. Any suggestions on other good chapter books for an almost 5 year old? I really like that each chapter in the Paddington books is it's only little story because if chapters end on cliffhangers there is sometimes a tantrum for another chapter.

Maybe Amelia Bedelia books?
That's a good idea. I loved those as a kid.
When I was a kid (long ago) my Mom read Kipling's "Just So Stories" to us and I loved them - I still love the Elephant's Child and "the banks of the great, greygreen, greasy Limpopo river all set about with fever trees". Haven't re-read them in years, so I can't comment on how well they've aged, but I loved the language and the humor. You do have to practice them - they can be tongue-twisty - but I have wonderful memories of them.
