I adore this short picture book! The artwork, characters, and story is charming. The relationship between the two sisters is absolutely adorable. You can tell they care for one another and want to be there for each other when life gets hard. I love how this book encouraged kids to dive into their im...
‘Somewhere in the universe, there is the perfect tune for you.’ This stunningly beautiful graphic novel is a treasure to hold in your hands. It’s a story with so many subtle layers, everything from bullying, to individuality, first crushes, and music history, all reflected within finely illustrat...
June 26, 2016April 13, 2014You can read it as the straightforward story of a being who's a little different and doesn't fit in. You can also read it as the story of finding acceptance with self and with society as a bi-racial being. You could extrapolate it on out as a story about anyone who contain...
A unique story that includes very artistic designs adding a lot of entertainment with much to see and discover. The story never really peaked for me yet once I reached the end, it tied up quite nicely. I received this story in exchange for an honest review.
As always with children's books, I make the disclaimer that I have no idea if the book is any use with children.

I don't really know that much about Virginia Woolf herself, but I know enough to know that little girl this book is about is based off her, loosely. Virginia is in a "wolfish" mood. This means she howl, growls...
A story about a boy and a book he didn't think would matter to him. Ever seen that moment in life when a "reluctant reader" finds that book. The one that just clicks. That finally makes them forget how hard reading is-because it is (See: Proust & the Squid); that becomes their almost constant com...
Vanessa's sister Virginia acts like a wolf. I have no idea if kids would like this, but as someone who admires/sorrows for Woolf, I think the extended metaphor really works. Poor woman.Ahwoooo!Library copy.
I received this book for free from NetGalley in exchange for an honest review. This does not affect my opinion of the book or the content of my review. I chose to request Mr. Flux because I liked the cover and I thought it looked like a fun book. I often choose my picture books by the art I see o...
