Spent some time with The Body Keeps the Score by Vessel van Der Kolk this morning. SO good but especially heavy this week. Followed up by How Do Dinosaurs Learn Their Colors with my twins. #FridayReads #amreading
The Tin Man though... all chopping off limbs accidentally and then just moving on with his life. Definitely a classic kids book. 😂 #WizardofOz #ReadingCommunity
"Towards evening they came to a great forest, where the trees grew so big and close together that their branches met over the road of yellow brick. It was almost dark under the trees, for the branches shut out the daylight; but the travelers did not stop...." #WizardofOz

Books are the carriers of civilisation. Without books, history is silent, literature is dumb and science is crippled. They are companions, teachers, magicians and bankers of the treasures of the mind. #books
Sepia-tone moving to Technicolor in #WizardofOz film was so true to the book: "nothing but the great gray prairie on every side... The sun had baked the plowed land into a gray mass... burned the tops of the long blades until they were the same gray color to be seen everywhere."
"I declare after all there is no enjoyment like reading! How much sooner one tires of anything than of a book! -- When I have a house of my own, I shall be miserable if I have not an excellent library." — Jane Austen, Pride and Prejudice 📸: @brenandpip
Born on this day in 1856, American author L. Frank Baum, best known for his children's books, particularly The Wonderful Wizard of Oz and its sequels. He wrote 14 novels in the Oz series, plus 41 other novels. #LFrankBaum #WizardofOz
Just started reading The Wizard of Oz for honestly, I think, the first time ever. Weird because of course I've seen the movie and I also played flute/piccolo for the musical once. This Barnes and Noble edition is beautiful! #amreading #wizardofoz

the plot of Beauty & the Beast makes a lot more sense when you realize the Beast’s library was the Penguin Classics Clothbound Collection
