I relate Abigail. I relate

Abigail the Whale by Davide Cali

January 26, 2023 by BlackRaven Leave a Comment

CBR15Passport book set another country: Davide Cali is a Swiss-born Italian and book was originally in French   I had forgotten I had requested Abigail the Whale when I received the email saying it was on hold for me at the library. Why did I request this book? I remembered when I saw the cover. Oh, yes, this was the book about body image. Now where did I see it again? That did not matter as I quickly realized this is a book that it […]

Raven’s Big Messy Book Reviews

Zara’s Big Messy Playdate by Rebekah Borucki

Zara's Big Messy Goodbye by Rebekah Borucki

Zara's Big Messy Day by Rebekah Borucki

Zara's Big Messy Bedtime by Rebekah Borucki

January 17, 2023 by BlackRaven Leave a Comment

  I never know what I will find when I browse catalogs (in hand or online). Recently I found (on Edelweiss) Zara’s Big Messy Books. These books are currently available, but I had them as reader copies, so there are a few “missing” pieces, such as I am not sure of the size of them, and I think that might affect some of the readers willingness to read. I was unfamiliar with the author, so it is the perfect author for CBR15Passport. Rebekah Borucki has […]

Bedtime or anytime I like you

I Like You: An Encouraging Bedtime Book (Positive Affirmations for Kids) by Kate Allen

January 6, 2023 by BlackRaven Leave a Comment

I like Kate Allen of TheLatestKate fame. Their books, journals, and daily affirmations are just what one needs every so often. Sometimes they can be a bit sugary, but they are always what they are: One person who has been there hoping to help you with words that could shine a little light on the situation. And with I Like You: An Encouraging Bedtime Book (Positive Affirmations for Kids) kids can get in on the action. Everything is sweet and simple. Colors are bright and there […]

Feel the feel

Sometimes I Feel…: A Menagerie of Feelings Big and Small by Sarah Maycock

January 5, 2023 by BlackRaven Leave a Comment

Sometimes I Feel…: A Menagerie of Feelings Big and Small in many ways is not a children’s book. Or just not a children’s book. Sarah Maycock’s idea of the feelings we have (as timid as a mouse; brave as a lion) might seem simple on the surface but there is something deeper and that is where the adult book comes in. Therefore, this is for everyone and anyone. Maycock took something that feels easy and simple, feelings, and twists it on its head. Yes, you […]

Making your mark and a few mistakes

Marker by Anna Kang

January 5, 2023 by BlackRaven Leave a Comment

Today’s lunch was a small croissant with a little chicken curry inside and picture book reading. And one of those was Marker by Anna Kang and illustrated by Christopher Weyant. This short picture book is a due in mid/late June (which seems an odd time) as it is about the first day and the first few days of school. Marker is a proud member of Teacher’s crew. And they are always there, ready to make their permanent mark on things. But during the writing of […]

The good and not-so-good seasons of life

The Seasons Within Me by Bianca Pozzi

December 23, 2022 by BlackRaven Leave a Comment

I am mostly sure I have read The Seasons Within Me before. I do not, however, think I have reviewed Bianca Pozzi’s story before. This book was read via Edelweiss and due April 2023 Now, even if I have reviewed this book before, I was in a different frame of mind. It is a few days before Christmas, I am trying to keep my happy on (why I have a bowl of Grinch poo on my desk), and I was in a mood where though […]

  • narfna on We are women without a voice…We are women out of time and place, without even the language of the country we reside in.Everything I hear about this makes me want to read it more. I've heard the audio is great, that's probably the route I'll go.
  • narfna on Because when women understand chemistry, they begin to understand how things work.The author hates the cover, too! I, like you, judged the book by the cover and was wrong. The British one is much better. https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/61QJVdPaRWL.jpg...
