April books read
I had quite a bit of variety in my ten books from April. It’s hard to choose a favorite. The Secret Garden has been a favorite for a long time, but I was just as blown away by Seabisucit and Wild Things and Marching Toward the Thunder. I could hardly go wrong this month.
33) Dr. Seuss Goes to War: The World War II Editorial Cartoons of Theodor Seuss Geisel by Richard H. Minear (Introduction by Art Spiegelman)
34) Seabiscuit by Lauren Hillenbrand – an amazing story of an amazing horse and an amazing story of those who worked with Seabiscuit
35) The Secret Garden by Frances Hodgson Burnett – the coming of spring invited me to enjoy this classic one more time
36) Making Sense of the Bible by Adam Hamilton – thoughtful and insightful look at understanding the Bible
37) By the Book: Writers on Literature and the Literary Life from The New York TImes Book Review edited by Pamela Paul – I loved this glimpse into the reading lives of a variety of writers
38) Audience Revolution by Danny Iny – something to think about.
39) Double Crossed: A Spies and Thieves Novel by Ally Carter – What happens when a top teenage spy runs into a master art thief at a society ball?
40) March Towards the Thunder by Joseph Bruchac – an excellent historical fiction set in the Civil War
41) The Niching Nest by Tad Hargrave – more business reading
42) Wild Things: Acts of Mishief in Children’s Literature by Betsy Bird, Julie Danielson and Peter Sieruta – a ravishing romp through children’s lit.
What have you read this month? What books are you looking forward to?
