A gift book for America's birthday? I found LOVE F A gift book for America's birthday? I found LOVE FROM AMERICA by Sarah Jospitre and Amandine Thomas at my local indie bookstore @TheReadingAttic recently. The opening spread begins with "What is America?" and shows many diverse and lovely scenes from our past and present. What books do you read on July Fourth? I have a small collection on my bookshelf. I have thoughts, but I would love to know yours. #Julyfourth #giftbook #AmericasBirthday #America #UnitedStates #childrensbooks
I love paper quilling. When someone asked for an o I love paper quilling. When someone asked for an ornament of the Big Chicken (a Marietta landmark), I had time! A few paper strips later ... it's done. #paperquilling #paperart #BigChicken #Mariettalandmark
I shared this one before, but after an image of th I shared this one before, but after an image of the confederate flag showed up at the Great American State Fair —  it makes sense to share this children’s book again. The image was removed, but it's crazy in 2026 that it even showed up.⁠
THAT FLAG by Tameka Fryer Brown and Nikkolas Smith shares the story of two friends, who view the confederate flag differently. It means violence and oppression to one girl and heritage to the other. ⁠
Through a field trip and a violent hate crime in the community, there’s a change of heart from the girl who views the flag as a symbol of heritage. ⁠
While a picture book may not change any minds, it could. On the title page it says “We hope the words and images in this story foster transformative conversations that lead to change.” The book includes information about the confederate flag and — an author’s note and an illustrator's note. Look for this at your library or local bookstore. #confederateflag #thatflag #violence #oppression #CivilWar⁠
Enzo returned from his German exchange trip yester Enzo returned from his German exchange trip yesterday. He was so talkative until he crashed last night.😴He had a great experience- ate lots of bread, met students in Paderborn, learned trains and public transit requires some flexibility, got to know more students from his own high school, and that experienced a heatwave with no AC 🥵 HOT! He told me today he would be happy not to talk to anyone for 5 hours. Only child in a five person room at the hostel… I understand. This Mom still has questions, but I can be patient 😆 Andy Jensen
