My MLIS is done and I’m back! Here is my first attempt at a #bookbento for the super fun Bronson Beaver Builds a Robot. It is a very creative story about a kid who understands that he has responsibilities, but also knows that he wants to win a gaming competition with his best friends. He creates a robot to do his work for him and it starts off great, but you know something is going to have to go wrong. Love how this showed teamwork, peer pressure, a love of gaming, ingenuity,responsibilities, family, and friends. A great book for 7-12 year olds with a fun STEM theme.

The Anti-Book by Raphael Simon (@isthispbosch) is a completely different book then anything I have read. Given that Simon is aka Pseudonymous Bosch, I am not so surprised by the unique storytelling. A powerful #socialemotionallearning book that kids won’t know is SEL. The ingenious concept is that Mickey is a 12 year old boy struggling with his parent’s divorce plus the normal struggles of that age. He hates everything and his favorite thing to say is get lost. But what happens when everyone and everything does disappear? Much like the Wizard of Oz, Mickey winds up in the Anti-World where his sister is 3 inches tall and his house has turned into a talking fly. Makes you think about the words you say, the way people impact you, and come face to face with your biggest fear, that you are not good enough. A powerful adventure that definitely deserves a read. This will be published in April by @penguinkids. Thank you to #netgalley for a digital review copy.
