“As the earth awakens from its slumber, let March awaken your spirit
to the infinite possibilities that lie ahead.”
Welcome to March and our month of infinite possibilities where any thing can happen. This month we celebrate Women's History Month, Irish American Heritage month, and Craft month to name a few, as well as the beginning of Lent with Ash Wednesday, and the beginning of Spring. Girl Scout cookies go on sale this month and the thing we all love to hate - the beginning of Daylight Savings Time.
Our dragon of the month is Clefspeare from Bryan Davis's middle grade series Dragons in our Midst which is an excellent series. I have had fun reading both as a youngster and as an adult.
And speaking of youngsters, its time for the annual March Book Madness sponsored by a pair of school teachers in Ohio that has gone viral over the years.
Check out these special editions of new book releases this month including Dream Count by Chimamanda Ngozi Adichie, the 50th anniversary edition of S.E. Hinton's The Outsiders, The Green Kingdom by Cornelia Funke, the 100th anniversary of the Annotated Great Gatsby by F. Scott Fitzgerald & James LW West, as well as 20th Anniversary Edition of Never Let Me Go by Kazuo Ishiguro.
Have fun exploring this month!
