Thank You, Miyuki by Marie Roxanne Galliez

June 29, 2022 by BlackRaven Leave a Comment

Thank You, Miyuki by Marie Roxanne Galliez has some amazing illustrations by Seng Soun Ratanavanh. Bursting with colors that bring to life the Japanese world of Miyuki’s grandfather, the world of patience and being in the moment is introduced. This third book by the duo shows Miyuki a rambunctious, rowdy child who is terribly active. Curious and full of imagination, she tries to do tai chi with her grandfather, but falls over. And every time he tries to meditate there is Miyuki asking away. During […]

Why are the adults the only characters wearing clothes?

Father Bear Comes Home by Else Holmelund Minarik

September 6, 2018 by BlackRaven Leave a Comment

I knew I had read not only Father Bear Comes Home by Else Holmelund Minarik and illustrated by Maurice Sendak, but the series of “Little Bear” books as a kid (and had them read to me).

One thing I did not forget though, is why are the adults the only […]
