The Diamond in the Window
Jane Langton
@erinentrada Jane Langton's The Diamond in the Window, which was my #MGBooktober favorite comfort read today (+favorite cover!). I might just pick it up right now for another go through. I've read it so many times over the years, I have no accurate idea. Maybe 50? Maybe 100??? Great question!

Fables
Aesop
Hi @sierraauthor, I loved the Little Mermaid too. Do Aesop's Fables count as folklore? If so, I'll have a bunch more to suggest. Thanks for this topic! #MGBookChat https://t.co/dHAPkW8Nkz

The Lyrics: 1956 to the Present
Paul McCartney
Love the New Yorker's end-of-article bio of #PaulMcCartney. It's a mastery of understatement. "Paul McCartney was a member of the Beatles and Wings. His most recent book is “The Lyrics: 1956 to the Present,” a two-volume collection of essays about his songs."

Kate DiCamillo
Day 10 #MGBooktober There are so many books with food I'm forgetting, but since I just finished @KateDiCamillo's Beverly, Right Here, I haven't been able to stop eating tuna fish sandwiches, ha. This book was so touching! #middlegrade #kidlit #WritingCommunity #BookTwitter https://t.co/BsPIkDdtoX

The Mystery of Black Hollow Lane
Julia Nobel
Since I read more than one book at once (don't we all??), I'm about to start The Mystery of Black Hollow Lane by @NobelJulia. Decided on it bec. the title reminds me of one of my fave #NancyDrew books. #MGBookChat #writingcommunity #middlegrade #kidlit #teachers #librarians https://t.co/3X61nJEPAU

Bhai for Now
Maleeha Siddiqui
Honey and Me by @meiradrazin and Bhai for Now by Maleeha Siddiqui, which was suggested to me via #MGBookChat by @aslan_magic (if memory serves). Loving both!! As I mentioned, anything related to The Parent Trap is perfect for me! https://t.co/YKi1H2kVO0
