I will not bow to the peer pressure that paints squirrels as cute. The vicious little things plant acorns in your exterior plants to kill their roots, then stand in the trees above your car and throw things at you. No, Mr. Squirrel, I'll not be tricked by good lighting and photoshopped photography.

I'd say movie adaptations that deviate from the book irk me, but only if it is a material deviation. I wish directors would get a clue that readers like me just want to see the literary work on the big screen. I don't want a surprise ending.😬

Of course it's on my family's watchlist. We're horror fans and will give any decent-looking film the benefit of at least 15 minutes to grab and keep our attention.

Folks, this Story Hour really hit me in the feels. Both of these stories are set in the modern world but have that patina of myth that is unique to timeless truths. Excited to share the recording with you soon!

Scholastic has provided book fairs to schools for over 50 years. These rabble rousers use morality as a wedge to oust and replace companies that have had long-standing contracts with the states. The same was done to oust and replace textbook companies. This is not morality. It is crony capitalism.
