You may remember that I became obsessed with penguins because of Mr. Popper's Penguins, which I repurchased when you kids were little. Because I grew up without a middle name, my first library card (1st grade) was in the name of Nancy P. Powell. One guess what the "P" stood for.
Redwall!! These are still cherished books for me and I've taken to buying them at used bookstores to put in to Little Free Libraries when I see them. And if the kids love dinosaurs, have you seen the Dinotopia series? The artwork and world building is absolutely stunning. Another childhood favorite I am collecting again to share with the niblings.
My friend’s preschool-age son showed me his book of dinosaurs including some I was not familiar with. I worried he was going to ask me to read and I wouldn’t be able to pronounce the unfamiliar names. No problem! He told me all about ALL the dinosaurs with their correct names including which were carnivores and which were herbivores. He was passionate.

I love that in 2026 you have to add a "don't come for me" over Thomas the Train. LOL
I was a bug / insect kid. Hahahahha
The nature of our interests sometimes makes us a little picky about details and I UNDERSTAND IT. 🤩
