Lessons in Chemistry
Bonnie Garmuseija sumnerI finally read Lessons in Chemistry, and I cried. Like a few times. I was like this is so sad I hope there are triumphant moments. No spoilers. 6:30 is an excellent dog name. Also, I guess I gotta watch the tv show now?

Dim Sum Palace
X. Fangeija sumnerI love the texture of the illustrations, how X Fang plays with scale, and how dreamlike the illustrations are! Fun to see the dream sequence framed on the page, so many great details to explore, it’d be so fun to talk through all the illustrations with young readers!

Impossible Escape: A True Story of Survival and Heroism in Nazi Europe
Steve Sheinkineija sumnerI would ready any Steve Sheinkin book, always brilliant, fast paced nonfiction, packed with information and heart. I watched The Zone of Interest about a week before reading Impossible Escape about Auschwitz and that is a devastating one-two watching and reading experience.

Seiji Yoshidaeija sumnerI LOVE Houses with a Story. It is exactly the kind of book I would’ve been obsessed with when I was a kid. I had like a couple of the Incredible Cross Section books of castles and the titanic and this feels so similar!
