Welcome

Welcome to The Kingdom of Books!

Here you will find books, books, and more books - all classified as children's or young adult literature. With each highlighted book, I will include a book critique, personal response, and other relevant information.

You are invited to visit often and explore the treasures of the kingdom, for in this kingdom you will find no dragons. Well, except for the occasional library dragon!



"Storytime, shmorie-time," blew Miss Lotta Scales, "why, if I let the children touch these books with their gooey fingers and snotty noses, this Library wouldn't last a week."And she stared so furiously at the teachers that they threw down their weapons and clanged out. All except sweet Miss Lemon. "You know, Miss Scales, we all love the books as much as you do..., but the Library belongs to the children." "Good Knight, Miss Lemon, you slay me," cracked Miss Scales. "Why the idea of storytime is simply medieval."
