Re: Recommendation Corner
 

Sarah's key is phenomenal and I keep meaning to reread it and never do. I vote for this but I am also going to share some info about the books I mentioned previously.



I also vote for Modern Family. It helped me a lot in the beginning of COVID. I would watch reruns with my dad and his partner.


Great suggestions and thank you for taking the time to write them up!!


Frostheart

Ash lives in the arctic and is waiting for his parents to return from a voyage that they've been on for many years. Ash partakes in a brave rescue attempt and he has his magical powers. These powers are misunderstood by the community he resides in and so he is rescued by the crew of The Frostheart. He and the crew end up partaking in many adventures.


(If someone can tell me how to find trigger warnings I'll see if these have any. I am not good at identifying triggers unless they are blatant)


Audience: 9-12+


The Polar Bear Explorers Club

Stella Starflake Pearl and her three fellow explorers are separated from their expedition and they trek across icelands and encounter unicorns, pygymy dinosaurs and snow queens. Will they live to tell their tale?

I would like to feature these two for television and book. Emma, would you like to write a description for ice princess or Princess Diaries. I enjoyed both!

For this month I want to suggest Happy Color. Earlier this year it kept me busy and safe at a time I was struggling. I'll come back and write a description etc.
