Library Loot #10

Must stop putting books on hold.

Must resist temptation to read every good book that people blog about.

Failing miserably.

For A/K:
The Cardboard Piano, Lynne Rae Perkins**
Are You Ready to Play Outside?, Mo Willems**
The Pigeon Wants a Puppy, Mo Willems (we like our Mo)**

The No-Good Do-Good Pirates, Jim Kraft/illus. by Lynne Avril**
Someday, Eileen Spinelli/illus. Rosie Winstead
Louise, The Adventures of a Chicken, Kate DiCamillo/illus. by Harry Bliss
Thomas and the School Trip (No Dora book this week; instead, we get Thomas the Train!)

For C:
Gregor and the Curse of the Warmbloods, Suzanne Collins

For M:
The Order of the Odd-Fish, James Kennedy (Fuse wishes, and it appears at my library; I’ll probably read this one, too.)*
Brief Candle, Kate Pennington

  1. I have the same resolutions… I am trying to only request books that are continuations of series right now, but we will have to see how that goes!Have you ever read Flowers for Algernon? I love that book… I would recommend it for you as well as for her. There’s also a movie, but it must’ve been a ‘made for tv’ one because I have never seen it to buy.

  2. I couldn’t help but laugh as I am feeling the same way. No more books on hold (yeah right) and maybe I need to quit reading others blogs so much. I just picked up Evernight from the library as well so I will be interested in hearing your thoughts on it.
