 THANKFUL FOR BOOKS! NOVEMBER READS

 So many great books in November! If you are looking for a gift or two, I really enjoyed Something, Someday by Amanda Gorman, illustrated by the always awesome Christian Robinson. Shark and Bot is a cute beginners graphic novel series. There are currently four books in the series. There are tons of "Best Of 2023" lists appearing as well as reading lists from the Texas Library Association. I am just starting to dig through those. Betsy Bird does a really fun 31 Days, 31 Lists every December. I always enjoy reading her comments and suggestions. What books are you gifting this year?
