Amanda Gorman was breathtaking. Star of the show. Her delivery was so effortless, considering the fact that this is just 21 and the whole world is watching!

Also, Looking forward to "Ten Titles on Tuesday" !

Would also love to see your Top 10 most re-read books. (I haven't had a chance to go back in time and read your past posts, yet - so if you have covered it already send me that way! )

Oh man, only 10 re-reads? That's gonna take me a minute, but what an idea -- thank you!

I can tell right now one of them is definitely Jamberry by Bruce Degen. It was one of the first board books my eldest brought to me over and over and OVER to read, and the thing that amazes me is that we STILL read it, and my children are now 4 and 6. It's hard for me to think of another book that has had that kind of appeal over all the years and ages. I mean, it's wonderful -- it's so, SO fun to read, which may be part of it (I fully believe kids enjoy reading when YOU enjoy reading to them) -- but it didn't know it was going to have such staying power.
