Destined to Become a Classic. Children's books for the middle grades. Wednesday, December 30, 2009. Heroines that Could Kick my Ass. I finally got around to The Hunger Games.

Destined to Become a Classic: I Am the Circle and the Circle is Me
http://destinedtobecomeaclassic.blogspot.com/2011/07/i-am-circle-and-circle-is-me.html
Destined to Become a Classic. Children's books for the middle grades. Saturday, July 30, 2011. I Am the Circle and the Circle is Me. Whooaaa. I just remembered I had a blog and why I have it. Picking up from where I left off. The Ask and The Answer. Turned out to be as equally amazing and full of surprises as the first installment of the Chaos Walking Trilogy. Ness left me once again at the edge of a precipice and I had to wait until September of 2010 to read the final book Monsters of Men. Black Threads...

Destined to Become a Classic. Children's books for the middle grades. Thursday, May 14, 2009. The Raucous Royals by Carlyn Beccia. Fabulously while doing it. Those good old days are gone, though. I haven't seen an outfit yet on Elizabeth II. That doesn't make her look frumpy (though I will admit, she knows a good hat when she sees one). Beccia chose a true or false approach to her subject and it serves her purpose well. Readers get a lesson in detective work and untrustworthy sources as well as tasty...

Destined to Become a Classic. Children's books for the middle grades. Sunday, April 19, 2009. Nation by Terry Pratchett. Ok, so this one is going to join my very hard to get on to "Absolute Favorites" tag. I only have one other book there, so, yeah. I know Terry Pratchett is a hugely successful author, but his more fantasy oriented books have left me cold., and I like fantasy. This, however, I read in one day and mourned when it was over. Nuff said. You really have to read it. Luckily for me, Sidman know...
