i've never liked the beatles in my entire life. sure, i'll admit they've had some catchy tunes. so...i was super reluctant to watch ACROSS THE UNIVERSE.
the movie captured me from start to finish. there wasn't a scene/song/part that i didn't like.

if you've seen it........let's talk.

it's me :] yay! i'm gonna TRY to post regularly. i've joined SWAPBOT [@swap-bot.com] and it's awesome. you can sign up for a variety of different craft projects. one thing they do is decorate little matchboxes and then fill them w/ cutesy items and then send them to your partner(s). in some you exchange postcards. sometimes things are themed..and sometimes you just look at the partner you 'send to' 's page for inspiration. or their are letter topics. one of those was my previous 'childhood books' one.

my favorite childrens books...

2007-09-03T08:33:02Z

I've joined Swap-bot. If you haven't..you should. It's amazing and highly addictive. For this challenge..I had to come up with four of my favorite childrens books. Away we go...

1. Small Pig by Arnold Lobel.

I can't even explain why it's my favorite. Basically the small pig feels as if he's a burden to the farmers that own him. He runs away and winds up in the big city. Thinking all he wants to do is relax in the mud, he unfortunately finds himself in concrete. The farmers searched until they find him. And never take him for granted anymore.

2. The Rescuers by Walt Disney.

This was the first book I owned as child. This was the first movie I've ever seen. It remains my favorite till this day. It's a completely captivating story with a moral I've always thought of. Two small mice sent to rescue an orphan against the greatest odds. And they prevail. No matter how small they are. They believed in their mission and nothing kept them from achieving it.

3. Danny & the Dinosaur by Syd Hoff

A fun book to read. I still own this book. (And the others actually.) It really captured my attention. Syd Hoff has a way with always doing that.

4. Julius by Syd Hoff.

Like Danny, it's a fun book to read. I love his use of larger than life imagery. It stands out.

going to bingo tonight. nothing new there :) tomorrow is my uncle harry's bday. i think there's some kind of lunch or something. i have to spend some time with my grandma before she goes back to st louis sunday. :( i like having her down here cause we play cards. ah well. her home is there, so.......

nothing much else is going on. i hear we're working the next 2 saturdays (mostly cause we're off memorial day, then the oven gets cleaned) and i will be so tired. so i thought i'd catch up on stuff a little, while i can. i try to get here and read everything when i can. i hope all is well with all of you.

xo.
