Chapter One

These books are where the nightmares of my childhood and probably where I started really getting into scary things. If you were in elementary school in the 90s you know these books.

This one is a wild ride, and it starts off strong. It gets right to the point as to why it is a book people worry about in chapter one. You also get to hear me put a tune to the anthem of the farm animals. I wonder if there's actually sheet music somewhere 🤔

Another Newbury Award book. This is geared to slightly older children than what we have been reading. This one is weird, and I do not care for it. However, I do think people need to read it. At the end you will need to turn it up and listen closely. There is a recording from when I went to hear Mrs. Lowry speak back on August 18, 2023.

Children's fantasy series classic. I've read at least two of the books in this series. People who love this series really love it. Those that hate it hate it passionately!

Another required reading. Be warned ⚠️ there is harsh language in chapter one ⚠️ This is more YA. If you read it as a child/teen I highly recommend you reread it as an adult.

Another juvenile or middle grade book that was a required school reading. It won a Newbury. Books are supposed to help you see the world through others' eyes. In BTT you see it through another's eyes that is starting to see the world through another's eyes.
