I used to get so frustrated trying to find simple holiday activities that my little one could actually do independently. It’s hard when you want them to feel included and confident, but everything seems just a little too complicated for their reading level.

📕 THE COURAGE OF DEVOTION
“How often in my life have I done this: Acted as if the signs and the rules didn’t apply to me, as I am a special case? Entitled. Self-centred. Will this “$200 therapy session,” as I referred to it the other day, make an impact? Will I learn this lesson?”

🌀Thy right is to work only, but never to its fruits; let not the fruit-of-action be thy motive, nor let thy attachment be to inaction. (Bhagavad Gita, 2:47)

It is the time of year to reflect on Her generosity. So much, and all of it unbidden.

@roclaverton The Juana and Lucas and Anna Hibiscus series are favorites of mine. My kid loved the former from page 1; he took a little while to warm up to the latter (it is very earnest/wholesome, in a way that I think triggered his oppositional instincts), but now we’re about halfway through reading it together, and he’s been actively asking for more. 😁

@ferrous I never heard of #WeirdPrideDay, and I love that it’s a thing! Possibly of interest, #MGLit fantasy genre, Kaela Rivera’s Cece Rios books — the main character has a “water soul” in a world that prizes fire, and struggles with her family’s/community’s perception of her differences as a “curse.” Also great in #ChapterBooks (on the cusp of #EarlyReaders/MG), Sara Pennypacker’s Clementine is a fabulously “weird” heroine. And in #GraphicNovels, definitely Cece Bell’s El Deafo.

My 5-year-old has just started #chapterbooks - I tried her with some Roald Dahl, as that's what we had in the house.

What's good in #earlyreaders these days? What should I be buying for her birthday or requesting at the library?

POC girl protagonists preferred!
