Mrs. Piggle Wiggle
This is a series about a sweet women who adores children. She adores children because of course children adore her. She spends so much time with children that she even has cures for their bad habits. This is a great book for a family and can be just right for a large range of grades and ages. It's a very settle and simple book but I love it. It's one of those books that you pass down for generations. I would rate it a ten but a different kind of ten. It's not that it has any problem (in fact to me it's flawless), it's just that for some people, it's a bit too layed back. I love the cozy warm feeling you get from reading this book, but other people may think that it doesn't have enough adventure, action, emotion or other things like that in it.

I have a connection: I adore children, too! But, sometimes they don't adore me; it probably has something to do with all the homework I assign. LOL.
ReplyDeleteSeriously, Max, I like how you talk about the way the tone of the book speaks to you. One of my favorite books, A Winter's Tale by Mark Halprin, envokes a cozy feeling for me in some parts of the story.
