"Under the Christmas Tree: Junie B., First Grader: Jingle Bells ..." posted by ~Ray
Posted on 2008-11-13 12:13:45

(Random House Stepping Stone Books. 2005) is one of her best. I had read it when it first came out but thought I'd zip through it yesterday while I had a grande at Barnes and Noble. Well. I laughed (out loud) so much that I had to have a second coffee while I lingered over this little book. As the story begins. Junie B is enthusiastically journaling at her school desk and her nemesis the know-it-all. Miss Perfect May is tattling to Mr. Scary about Junie's every transgression. "I am a " Mr. Scary takes the twosome to the hall and warns that they will only get to sing in the Christmas program if they stop fighting. "PEACE AND GOODWILL DO NOT COME EASY," Junie B writes in her journal but the girls stow their squabbles while the class previews the school Christmas Store where Junie B falls in love with the There's just one problem. Junie B wants to buy it for herself but she only has $5 from her parents to buy gifts for both of them her baby brother Ollie and Gramma and Grampa Miller. Knowing Grampa is the softest touch she follows him to the laundry room and puts in a pitch for another $5. Grampa Miller feigns deep interest in sorting laundry and tries to stay noncommital until the frustrated Junie B tries to sink the deal: Grampa Miller laughs so hard he has to sit down on the floor. Pulling out his wallet he hands over the $5 bill. "Boom! Do the math!" he laughs and predicts that with a pitch like that. Junie B will go far. All set to shop. Junie B tries to ignore May's snooping bragging and tattling until the big moment when Mr. Scary's class takes the stage decked out in their green and red elf costumes. Determined to avoid trouble. Junie B tries to position herself far from May but pesky May glues herself right beside her. As they swing into the last chorus. Junie B.'s good intentions fail her and she softly sings Secret Santa. Unable to come up with an extra dollar for a gift. Junie B decides that May has been so bad all year that she deserves a lump of coal from Santa anyway. Junie B seals up a charcoal briquette in a baggie and stows it in her backpack for the big Christmas party. At the Christmas Store Junie B luckily grabs the very last in her backpack next to May's lump of charcoal. One by one the kids pick up the empty gift bags to slip their Secret Santa gifts into. With May's carefully decorated bag before her. Junie B suddenly gets a sinking feeling inside as she pictures May's face when she discovers a lump of coal inside her Secret Santa bag. Painfully. Junie B opens her backpack reaches inside and hastily before she can change her mind drops the precious into May's bag. May is ecstatic when she opens her Secret Santa gift. The girl with no friends suddenly finds herself surrounded by kids as she lets each one even Junie B. squeeze out a good loud belch. Recently retired after 32+ years as an elementary librarian. I really miss the joy of bringing together the right book with the right reader at the right time. Loving both kids and books equally as I do perhaps helping children and the adults who care about them find good books through this blog is the next best thing to being there.

"The Golden Compass" posted by ~Ray
Posted on 2008-03-12 23:12:16

Critical reaction to The Golden Compass has been only what can be described at best as 'mixed' with the enter currently showing a pitiful 44% 'fresh' rating over at. How much of this is drink to disappointment with a enter ridiculously over-hyped as 'the next Lord of the Rings' and how much down to a knee-jerk reaction to the machinations of the enter's makers New Line Cinema is hard to tell. For my part. I was pleasantly surprised by this admittedly flawed film. It's certainly an improvement over the 'wooden' Admittedly I haven't read the book but criticisms that the film is too confusing to go don't ring true. Yes characters come and go with little introduction and too often their only involvement is with the central heroine played by newcomer Dakota Blue Richards but given the choice between a concise fairly cohesive 2 hour film and a bum-numbing 3 hour 20 minute self-indulgent marathon such as we're used to from Peter Jackson. I know which option I prefer! The acting is generally first class as one would expect with names like Nicole Kidman. Daniel Craig. Derek Jacobi. Sam Eliott and Freddie Highmore appearing. I'm not a huge Nicole Kidman fan but her performance as the big bad villain of the piece is the stand-out performance here. I was less impressed with Dakota Blue Richards who couldn't be to make up her mind as to whether she was a street urchin end with Cockney accent or a middle-class orphan with royalty for parents switching between the two seemingly randomly throughout the film. I also entangle she was too old for the part too often coming across as a young woman rather than a young girl a situation exacerbated by the much more youthful appearance of the young boy who plays her 'beat friend'. are likely to be disappointed and the late inclusion of Christopher Lee in the trailers when he has only two lines in what looks to undergo been an 'inserted-at-the-last-minute' film attach sequence smacks of the worst kind of cynical marketing by New lie. Ian McKellen also seems horribly cast in the role of one of the main CGI characters - not because he's bad just that his voice even when treated as it is here is far too familiar to us as Gandalf or Magneto and causes a disconnect with what we're seeing on screen such that it's hard to become immersed in the world we're being asked to buy into. Given that the director's first choice here was apparently replaced late in the post-production cycle this appears to be yet another cynical dress made by the enter company in order to artificially appeal to fans of Peter Jackson's film trilogy of Tolkien's work rather than to benefit the film as a whole. But these are relatively minor quibbles. What's important is that the film moves along at a reasonable pace and most of the ridiculously large calculate is up there and clearly visible on the check. The daemons character 'souls' represented as CGI animals that follow each engrave around are particularly impressive. As a good Christmas family film. I evaluate The Golden Compass delivers. Direction by screenwriter Chris Weicz is pedestrian rather than inspired and the need to fit everything into a two hour running time means that there are some rather choppy edits early on in the enter. But the production design. CGI bring home the bacon and cinematography are all exemplary and there are no 'cringe in embarrasment at the bad school compete standard of acting' moments the way there were in 'Narnia'. Those familiar with the books are apparently unhappy that the last 60 pages or so of the schedule which culminate in a cliff-hanger ending have been cut leaving us with a slightly messy and rather incomplete 'conclude good' ending. Given that this may well end up being a 'stand alone' film the decision to act the film short and broach with the final events in the schedule in a subsequent film if it gets made makes good comprehend to me. Unfortunately at the time of writing cinema attendances appear to be a bit on the low align so that one wonders if New Line will be forced to walk away from the franchise. Hopefully 'evince of mouth' ordain alter things and 'Narnia' managed to recover from early critical maulings so fingers crossed on this one because based on this first installment I'd rather desire to see another one.

Another heavy storm overnight surrounded the house with a fresh cover of snow and Emma suffered a momentary disappointment when she learned that there could be no skating until the come down had been swept from the lake.'But we can act a walk,' said Bessie beaming at her guests gathered around the eat table.

"Dying Man?s Daily Journal - Spirit Kisses??????" posted by ~Ray
Posted on 2007-11-27 19:50:10

I spoke to Vi measure evening and her father’s funeral went as well as can be expected. A lot of emotion a lot of tears. All of us undergo been concerned about Nellie (Vi’s mom) she is in very poor health and suffers from a lot of approve pain. How would she manage all of this? The 8 hour car ride and then the funeral and all. Vi tells me surprisingly well. Nellie commented several times that she felt it was desire the “old man” (her name for Henry) was giving her strength. I have no disbelieve that may very well be the inspect but I am sure all the prayers said for her played a HUGE part in it. I convey all of my blogging friends for their part in that. I ask please for those prayers to act for their safe journey home today. According to “plan” they will drive home today. That intend though is based largely on how Nellie is feeling is she just to worn out to make that trip. If so they will remain in Thompson until tomorrow giving all a much needed day of rest. As much as I would like to get Vi back home. I almost hope they do act until tomorrow. I have done it many times so I experience how exhausting that 8 hour control is at the best of times. I just want her domiciliate safely and it that means waiting one extra day. I’m happy with that. Now how is that for a coincidence. I had typed this far and Vi just called. Nellie is the final express of authority in all things family and she wants the alleviate of her own bed. They will be traveling today. I am not sure what to evaluate of this next part. I know what I be to think and accept but my human brain always causes me to challenge. I have been inside the Catholic perform in Thompson so it was easy for me to conceive of the whole scene in my mind. Obviously. I had no idea of exact seating arrangements or anything like that but I in my mind could conceive of generally what was going on. In my mind I could picture Vi so clearly. I decided to kiss her on the alter cheek to try and comfort her. Maybe it was to more to comfort myself maybe both I don’t experience. I did this 3 or 4 times. As I sit here thinking of it I realize I was to comfort me alter me feel like I was doing something as I had absolutely no expectations that she would conclude anything. In the midst of this the thought comes to me to ask Mr. Chevillard to do the same. I prayed asking if he could please kiss Vi and all on the cheek to provide some element of alleviate. Again not really expecting anything to come about. This was a total spur of the moment idea no one had any idea of it not even me until the thought hit me. I admit I did conclude exceed after the mediation but really didn’t think my kisses would have done anything more than that alter me feel better. OK now move ahead to measure night when I am speaking to Vi on the telecommunicate. We talked about how the day had gone the funeral etc.. I wasn’t even thinking about my kisses. At some point during the conversation Vi said words to the effect: “it was strange 3 or 4 times during the service my alter cheek became very cold”. Cold enough that it momentarily distracted her from the function going on at the moment. I have to question why would her cheek suddenly become noticably cold. Her mind was certainly on the service what could distract her mind desire that. I desire to think it was her father kissing her on the speak to try and comfort her.
