Flavia is Awesome - Girl Power to the Max!!

I hope all of our readers are enjoying a romp through the English countryside with Flavia! Isn't she a hoot!!???
Her dialog is hilarious!
I found this funny little ditty on youtube and wanted to share it before our evening together. Now I know that the voice is much too sophisticated for our 11 year old heroine but still ........ fun to watch!
Enjoy and COMMENT PLEASE!

Our March Selection.....Drum Roll, Please!!!!

We have our title for this month and it is a great one!!! Grandma Wells has a copy if you need one! I just started reading it this weekend - liking it so far!!

It would be great if we could get it read and get together while Haley is in town for her Spring Break. That's March 21 - 28!!! Can we do it? - Yes, we can! Plan on meeting at the Larsen Residence - let me know what days are best! It will be so fun to get together again - now go read you some Flavia!!! And watch out for the body in the garden!!!!

Book Time!

Ok - 2012 is off and running. Can you believe it is already the middle of February? WE HAVE GOT TO GET SOME READNG DONE!!

I took the recommendation of Grandma Bean and read Unbroken by Laura Hillenbrand. What a great book! I learned so much about WWII and Louis Zamperini! Thanks Christiny!!Click on the video to see a bit about the book.

Now - down to the business of rEaDiNg!!! I guess it is time for a trip to the bookstore! If you have a suggestion of a good read for March leave a comment and we will see what we can come up with for the group! No more slacking - get your reading glasses on and start turning pages!!!!
