I definitely want to get to it, but after just finishing Pax yesterday, I think I need a few fun books in between the two! I thought Bug in a Vacuum was so unusual and wonderful. I have described it to the teens I work with and they want to read it since it's such a funny idea for a picture book.Hannahlilyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07322474845421670267noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3031142435142384571.post-17839758564501103222016-02-23T04:08:17.351-08:002016-02-23T04:08:17.351-08:00Looks like there is a preponderance of foxes and w...Looks like there is a preponderance of foxes and wolves in this year's children's books.
