Top Ten Tuesday; Cosy/Wintry Reads For Kids

It's Tuesday, which means it's time for a new Top Ten Tuesday post courtesy of That Artsy Reader Girl. The theme of the week was cosy/wintry reads, but I decided to narrow it down to reads for kids (the majority has a Christmas theme to them).

My picks are;

The Christmas Truce - The Place Where Peace Was Found by Hilary Robinson & Martin Impey

The Christmas Cat by Efner Tudor Holmes and Tasha Tudor

The Polar Express by Chris Van Allsburg

Paddington Bear and the Christmas Surprise by Michael Bond

Teddy's Christmas Wish by L. J. deVet

Winnie-The Pooh - Pooh's Christmas Letters by Andrew Grey

Letters from Father Christmas by J. R. R. Tolkien

Tree of Cranes by Allen Say

The Tailor of Gloucester by Beatrix Potter

The Tomten and the Fox by Astrid Lindgren

    I love children's books, but I haven't read any of these yet. Thank you for so many recommendations. Honestly, they all sound wonderful.

    Here is our Top Ten Tuesday.

    Herlig liste! Her er det flere bøker jeg ikke har lest, men jeg har lest Lindgren sin bok og Polarekspressen. Noterer meg ned denne listen til en dag jeg trenger litt julemagi :D

    What cute choices! Somehow I've never picked up the Paddington Christmas book. I'll have to save these for future gifts for kids!

Announcing the 2022 Diversity Reading Challenge

Image
As we're writing 2022 in two months, I figured out it was time to announce the 2022 Diversity Challenge. I've hosted it in 2019 and 2021, and decided to host it next year too. I’m not going to make any categories or levels for this challenge, as I want it to be a bit flexible. Read as many books as you feel like reading and yes, it can be children’s books, graphic novels, e-books, non-fiction, audio books, poetry and you-name-it. As it is a diversity reading challenge, it would be mean to exclude some types of reading materials, right? Now, what is diversity you might ask? What I mean by diversity is, but not limited to; People of colour/non-caucasian characters/authors Native Americans and other indigenous people LGBTQIA+ Authors/characters defining themselves as trans, intersex, genderfluid or similar Refugees Religious minorities Mental illnesses/disorders Neurodiversity (like ADD, Aspergers and autism) Feminist themes/issues Physical/mental disabilities Characters/authors w...
