Graham Reads

I read Lambslide by Ann Patchett and illustrated by Robin Preiss Glasser. I think it is Ann Patchett’s first kids’ book (but we have her grownup books in our house), but Robin Preiss Glasser has drawn pictures for Fancy Nancy. I saw the play of Fancy Nancy last year in preschool. I loved the pictures in Lambslide and the story was really funny. The silly lambs think the Farmers are talking about them and they talk to all the animals on the farm and vote to build a slide for everyone to play on even though they call it a lambslide. I loved this book! I read it to my brother and he laughed and laughed The book comes out on May 7 from Harper Collins. My dad told me that the author will be at Parnassus Books in Nashville on May 6. I want to go, but I don’t get out of kindergarten until 3:45, and it takes 3 hours to drive to Nashville. Louisville friends and family, I bet they will have it at the library and carmichaels kids. x

I'm in a play! It is at Commonwealth Theatre, and the play is by Shakespeare. He was from England, and I am from Scotland. I'll give you a clue: it's called The Scottish Play. You can get tickets here . I am the youngest person in the play, but the second youngest is a really smart girl I have known for a long time. I love being in the play with her. Also, the man who plays the title role in The Scottish Play is also from Scotland!

I love this book. I wasn’t feeling very well when I filmed this review because I had my tonsils out the week before, but I really wanted to review the book anyway even though my throat hurt when I talked sometimes. I loved this book called Dear Boy. It’s by Paris Rosenthal and jason Rosenthal and @hollyhatamillustration and it has good advice for being a boy and it’s about being kind and not being scared if you’re different. I think if says some really important things so i gave it one million gold stars. My mommy says this book comes out for sale this week to lots of people and I think a lot of people would like it even if they were not boys.
