Tomorrow we start week 1 (of 4) of the #HarborandSprout Forensic Science unit. It has some fun things to look at and we get to read and listen to some #SherlockHolmes. 6 loves a mystery, so he's going to enjoy it, or at least I hope he does.

It's Christmas in July! I'm ho ho so happy to see SLJ's favorable review of THE MOUSE BUFFET: A CHRISTMAS TREAT! Those adventurous mice scamper onto bookshelves on August 1, 2025 with Sleeping Bear Press.
#kidlit #librarians #firstgrade #kindergarten #preschool #holidaygift #picturebook #timbowers

School Library Journal @slj.com · Jul 8

The concept of Christmas in July is said to have started in the 1930s at a summer camp, where Christmas-themed activies took place. Today, the midyear event is celebrated by stores, in movies, and more.

These eight forthcoming board books and picture books will be available next month.

8 Merry Picture and Board Books to Celebrate Christmas in July

These eight forthcoming board books and picture books will be available long before December. Turn on some Christmas tunes, grab a Santa hat, and peruse these holly, jolly offerings.
