Can I Play Too? (Elephant & Piggie Books) by Mo Willems

Lea Anna, March 19, 2013

I love all of Mo Willem's Elephant and Piggy books! This one is about accepting someone for who they are and including them. These books are great easy readers with good lessons. I can't rave about them enough.

Walking Dead #02: The Road to Woodbury by Robert Kirkman

Lea Anna, March 19, 2013

Another good installment on the twisted Governor character. This book explores how Woodbury came to be and how the Governor took it over. While The Walking Dead TV show may not portray the Governor as scary as the comics, these books bring you deeper into his dark psyche. I'm definitely looking forward to the final book of this series.

Lea Anna, March 19, 2013

Heti has a unique voice and I had a hard time putting this book down. Her characters were interesting and raw. I enjoyed reading it.

Where'd You Go, Bernadette by Maria Semple

Lea Anna, March 19, 2013

I thought this book was hilarious. I love Bernadette's ranting on Seattle (even though my opinion of the city doesn't align with hers) and how unapologetic she is. I've always enjoyed epistolary novels with the different voices from all the characters. This is an extremely fun read.

Far from the Tree: Parents, Children and the Search for Identity by Andrew Solomon

Lea Anna, March 19, 2013

This is quite the tome, but I can't imagine anything that should be removed. The topics that Solomon explores are completely fascinating and he does an excellent job portraying the differences, obstacles, delights and sorrow of parents and children with horizontal identities. His research is in depth and wide. Each chapter leads into the next building off each other which brings in the larger picture of parenting. While I'm not a parent or child with any of these identities, reading this has made me realize how varied relationships can be and how to be a better person towards people with horizontal identities.
