My two new bonejacks

Racing to finish BONE JACK by Sara Crowe & SHORT by Holy Goldberg Sloan so I can dive into FROGKISSER by Garth Nix! Last week the brilliant David Levithan proclaimed his "very, very profound love" for this book, which he calls, "Garth's Princess Bride." I bought it immediately & just need to decide if I read or listen to it... SO ready for a new fairy tale retelling! #fairytale #fairytales #princessbride #frogkisser #garthnix @davidlevithan @scholasticinc #bonejack #holygoldbergsloan #short #wizardofoz #greenman #thebattleofthetrees #taliesin @penguinkids @penguinukbooks #books4yourkids #kidsbookstagram #fantasy #fracturedfairytales #fairytaleretelling

February has been a great month for fantasy. Finished the superb A CRACK IN THE SEA by H.M. Bouwman, the 2016 Newbery winner THE GIRL WHO DRANK THE MOON by Kelly Barnhill and am listening to NORSE MYTHOLOGY by Neil Gaiman. Why read it when you can have Neil read it to you?? And now I'm about to dive into BONE JACK by Sara Crowe - "a story of magic and myth, of one boy caught between worlds, and of the lengths he will travel to save those he loves." Lots of great advance praise and awesome cover art by Kelly Brady! #fantasy #middlegradefiction #newbery #ala2016 #thegirlwhodrankthemoon #acrackinthesea #bonejack #saracrowe @algonquinyr @penguinkids #kellybarnhill #books4yourkids #norsemythology #neilgaiman @neilhimself #kidsbooks #kidsbookstagram
