Fish Girl is a cute graphic/picture book that incorporates mythology. The images are fun and innocent. I enjoyed it. The octopus changing shape and whatnot throws me off.

Joan Proctor, Dragon Doctor was entertaining and informative. Female power in science is a must and I'm glad Joan got the opportunity. And I learned Komodo dragons eat pigeons.
Mr. Wuffles is a true picture book. Minimal words but a good deciperable plot nonetheless. Also it make me want to clean my house because of the junk on the floors.
How to Say Hello to a Worm: A First Guide to Outside is a cute intro to growing things. I loved the racial and disability representations.

That's Me Loving You is a sweet story with great diversity. It gives spring or summer vibes.

Preaching to the Chickens is a great intro to John Lewis and activism for young readers. It is a great opportunity to open up a dialogue with children about what the vision for their own life.

An Unkindness of Ghosts is a unique foray into racism, classism, identity, sexuality, mental illness and environmentalism. I was surprised to find comedy as well. The book was a job well done for the most part. World building was up there. A few plot holes/things that didn't make sense, but it didn't dampen my enjoyment that much. I am not a sequel person, but I wouldn't mind one.
