Flower

I was walking in the park with my sister today and was smelling the glorious flowers and got to thinking about Bambi. It made me think about all my favorite charectors from Disney movies and here is a short list. (I think it's pretty predictible)
Little Mermaid- Flounder
Cinderella- Gus Gus
Sleeping Beauty- The Blue Fairy (I think it's Flora)
Peter Pan- The littlest brother (can't remember his name but he's a cutie)
Bambi- I always loved Flower
Tarzan- Jane
Pinnochio- Nobody. I never liked this movie.


And now I am tired of thinking about this. I will write more as they pop into my head.

Little Women

So I am in am finishing up the prepwork for my second essay in this class and so I'm reading Little Women again. I LOVE this book I think it should be riquired that all girls read and enjoy this book as much as I did/do. :-D It just has such great dynamics. The interactions of the sisters with each other and with other people that come into their world is sublime. It is such a lovely picture of innocence and good in the world. I think that while I've been reading this book I was able to see the good in the world that had become overshadowed by the drudgery of school and everyday life. :-D I just wish that everyone could love "sweet" books. They have alot to offer!

picture books

So today I went to the library! It was so much fun looking at kids books. I got WAAAAY to many and have really enjoyed pouring over them. I think it's funny how some books just POP out at you and you are pretty much powerless to their call. There were some amazing books out there! I got one about Noah's Ark. I left it in my car bu I will add it to my list of outside books later. It is a wordless picture book and I loved it! it won the Caldecott medal, which is the Newberry award for illustrations. Some of the pictures evoke such emotion. I highly reccomend it. (once I get the Title and author/illustrator I will put that here) there are some others that I reccomend so watch for them on my outside book list. :-D
