My #library #bookhaul Loved reading these titles over the past days. From these, I’ve requested more titles by these authors & illustrators. Anthologies are great resources to learn about creators! #buildyourstack #kidlit #picturebooksofinstagram #bookstagram #teachergram #titletalk #shelfietalk

I was today years old when I learned from a school library media specialist that there’s such a thing as Vox Books! So cool!

Different settings = different reading platforms! Before sunrise on weekends, we like to sit outside by the fire to start our day. Can’t read a paper book outside before sunrise (well, not without a flashlight!) So this #ebook suits. Also: I can sip tea and turn pages simultaneously! ☕️ 📖
