Hi my friends I hope you have enjoyed the reads in this blog ,. but as you know , I always like to add a childrens book to this list as well now and then , so this next review is for the people who like reading to the children in your household , a good little book .. and it is sweet ,.. I know at first it seems like a theme is on bulling but i loved it and so I thought to add it here , for you all to enjoy as well . Just because you are small , doesnt mean you are different , polly was smal , and no one wanted to play with her , but because she was small , she saved the day , just remember that every one is different and no matter what you look like that it makes us unique in every sense of the word . Loved this small story and i think you should make this a story apart of your library too . A fun and enchanting modern fairy tale. It says it all in the title . ok ,this was a lovely little story ,. it was a tale of brothers and a girl , and some yarrow bread , its a fairytale story ,only 20 odd pages , If you go into the woods make sure you know where you are going and maybe dont promise to many promises to too many people especially those you dont know . Use the right ingredients and dont use something not asked to use either . But i think the moral of the story is , dont talk to strangers or listen to requests of strangers lol , I will i think re read this , but overall , really good short stroy , something you can read in like 30 mins oir so , on a short break . Loved it . great book Ok by far the smallest book I've ever read .. but it throws a good punch But one of the most interesting ,I don't think some people know they are a feminist until they read something like this , and I am for sure a feminist , in the way that I want woman to get the same level of support in the community as men get , or maybe get that job that they can do just as well as a man can do . I suppose you don't really think about this stuff because like the book says , it is drummed into her heads as kids through our years growing up whether you are male or female and society has taught us in schools and through the actions of our elders how to treat one another . I know I am a feminist because I support the woman , I read most female authors , I listen to mostly female singers and I like to buy from a female shop ... I mean yes I know this doesn't make im a feminist , but I am trying to support them in all there endeavors in society , make it fair that they all get a chance to prove that they have what it takes to do the same jobs most men do or even do it better . so I recommend you read this little book of inspiration and really think what the book is trying to say . Ok I also love what she said in this book and here's an example , (so I decided I would Now be a happy African feminist who dares not hate men ) she has really given us something to think about , and with her honesty and courage to speak out and be herself it should inspire more actions like this Ok , this was a great book of poetry , a small read but that's ok ,as you don't want to many pages of overwhelming rhythms ,its not the usual poems you read in other books but that's what makes it different .. it covers things like nature , food , people , relationships and Friendships and teas , and fruit she also adds things like ( she cradles red hibiscus), I just love this saying and the way she uses word and sentences , and like most of her work , its inspiringly thoughtful , and still being unique , she has talked about even drying her hair , witch smells coconut oil . I love how real it all feels , like it just happened as we speak ... oh one more thing , just so you know some people struggle with the thought of No capitals in her poems , accept for the title , but that is her writing style , its dramatic, I think this adds to the beauty of her work , its great and obviously its her style of writing and its this that caught my attention to read this book in the first place ,so simple to read yet interesting and unique in all its flavors . I love the poems but I must say , a few caught my attention the most and here are my list of favorites ,
Domesticity pg2/3 Self-care is prosperity pg4 A married woman's style guide pg7/8 Rubbing salt pg13 Painting windows pg14 Meditations on the weather pg24 Habit pg31 Three crows pg38 House lizard pg43 Christmas morning pg47 Sunny side up pg49 (this one is about eggs) they all have meaning to her of course , but its all random thoughts to us ,which makes it more interesting I guess . love this book , will deffinetly read again. |
