Mazie’s Amazing Machines should interest young inspiring inventors and engineers ! It is a fun and really smart read ! I love how the author explains the functioning of each machine at the end of the book. It is the perfect read for young dreamers who want to imagine great things !

I got everything done today that I wanted to get done! Not the way that I wanted to get them done, mind you... (Apparently printing a QR code on a Cricut has a bunch of hurdles I'd need to clear to make it work. Who knew? Instead, I just included our handles on the chalkboard - which are removed here, if things look weird.) Anyway, the fence, lights, and chalkboard are in place! I think the little library is really coming along 😄

I never had the opportunity to read The Secrets of the Immortal Nicholas Flamel series, so I was quite excited to discover this graphic novel adaptation of the first novel. The story was so intriguing and interesting, I really enjoyed it ! I was really impressed by the depth of the storyline, as well as the use of worldwide mythologies.

This picture book is truly gorgeous : based on the true story of Mildred, Harriet, Brenda, and Wilma Moody, this non fiction book shows the incredible work realized by the sisters in Southern California in the 30s.

It is a thriller where the author takes her time to settle the story and the strange atmosphere. It is rapidly understood that each character has something to hide and that they don’t meet by coincidence. Hank Phillippi Ryan drops clues here and there . One character looking at another strangely makes the perfect suspect to me !

If you are looking for a very sweet MG read, you should check Calvin and the Sugar Apples. Focusing on eleven-year-old Amelia and the loss of her best friend Calvin, a twenty-one-year-old chinchilla, this novel is beautifully written and illustrated.
