Little Letters: Third Edition


Dear God,
 Thank you for simple, everyday blessings. Please help me to be more thankful for them.
in my imagination as a little girl, I wore dresses like this while reading in a tree


Dear Summer,
 I can't believe you are nearly here. I am looking forward to picnics, swimming, and such that I can only do during summer.


Esta es una de la cosas que más me gusta hacer contigo...Da igual el lugar y cuando porque tú y yo somos nuestro riconcito del mundo!!




Dear 1940s swing music,
 I haven't always enjoyed listening to you, but lately I have. Your so energetic and peppy.


Glenn Miller and 40's Big Band Swing Music




Dear Once Upon a Time Season 4,
 I can't wait for you to come out this fall, especially since Elsa and Anna are going to join the cast.

The Frightened Whisper book review







Title: The Frightened Whisper

Series: None

Author: Helen Girvan

Genre: Young Adult Mystery

Plot: Laurel 'Lolly' Sinclair is a student at Beechcroft, an a girls boarding school. Many of the girls have had things taken from their rooms, only to have most of the things returned later. When a very valuable document is taken it is up to Lolly to find the document before any of her fellow classmates can be wrongly accused.

What I liked about this book: This was a nice vintage read. The style of the book is similar to that of The Nancy Drew mysteries.

What I didn't like about this book: The mystery wasn't super hard to figure out.

Would I recommend this? I would recommend this to tweens who like Nancy Drew.

Note: This book was written in the 1960s and has not been reproduced to my knowledge. Fairly inexpensive copies of this book are available on ebay, if you would like to buy it.
