Top Ten Tuesday Animals from books






Hi! Jana hosts Top Ten Tuesday @thatartsyreadergirl. A love of lists inspires this weekly meme and bringing the book blogging community together. Each Week, Jana will make a post, and we book bloggers will write a response to the post. If we’re feeling like being different, we can use a different topic. This week our topic is animals from books. This topic as submitted by Paige @paigesquared and Jennifer Y @never2many2read.

1- Grover from The Percy Jackson Series by Rick Riordan

When I saw this prompt, I knew my favorite satyr from Percy Jackson would be on the list. Grover is Percy’s friend, but he is half-human, half-goat, so he fits this prompt. I love how sassy he is, and how much he cares for Percy.

2- Winnie the Pooh from Winnie the Pooh by A. A. Mine

I’ve maybe read these books as a child but I don’t remember them. Pooh is on this list because I love his personality in the media I’ve seen. He’s so much fun and I love him a lot. Also, I have one I got from Disney World when I was 18 that I still sleep with every night.

3- Charlotte from Charlotte’s Web by E. B. White  

I have not read this book yet, but I have plans to read it. I watched the film version of this as a child, and I fell in love with her. She’s another one that I knew would need to be on this list when I got the prompt.

4- The White Rabbit from Alice’s Adventures in Wonderland

I love Alice in Wonderland. I’ve read the book and watched the movies many times. I have always loved the white rabbit as a character. 

5-Babar from The Story of Babar by Jean de Brunhhoof

Oh, my goodness, Babar is a favorite elephant from my childhood. I love him and I feel like few people know about him.

6- Gus the Theatre Cat from a poem by T. S. Eliot

I needed to include the theatre cat from Cats. Cats is something I enjoy, and I like some songs from the musical. Gus is so cool and I love his character.

If you know me, you knew I needed to include a cat here from Cats the musical. My favorite cat

7- Black Beauty from Black Beauty by Anna Sewell

This is a story about a horse, and I love the book. I read this in college and I loved the story because I always a fan of horses. This is a sweet story about a horse and the owner.

8-Genevieve from Madeline by Ludwig Bemelmans

I love Madeline and I have for a long time. I needed to include the dog from these books on this list. 

9- Clifford from Clifford the Big Red Dog by Norman Bridwell

Clifford is so cute and so cool. I just love him and Emily Elizabeth.

10- Callie from The House on the Cerulean Sea by T.J. Klune

This is the adorable cat from this novel. She is awesome.

Blogs I used when making my choices

    I think this is the first blog I see where you do different animals. Which I probably would have done if I'd stuck to the topic. LOL

    Thanks for visiting my TTT earlier.

    I can't believe I forgot about Clifford. I wanted a big red dog of my own so badly when I was a kid, haha.

Top Ten Tuesday- Holiday / Seasonal Freebie- Memorable characters of 2020

  Hi! Top Ten Tuesday is hosted by Jana  @thatartsyreadergirl . This meme was born out of a love of lists and bringing the book blogging community together. Every week, Jana will post a topic, and we book bloggers will post a reply to the topic. This week, it's a seasonal / winter freebie. I kind of went rogue in a way. In the winter you see the end of the year best-of lists, and that's exactly what I did with this post. You will find subsections to indicate the genre each book is in.  YA Contemporary 1- Pepper from Tweet Cute by Emma Lord Tweet Cute was a novel I read in September. I fell hard for the major character, Pepper. She was so sweet, and she wanted so much to lice her own life.  As a bonus, she baked, and I seem to really love characters who bake. Pepper made this list because she wanted to live her own life for her, and I really admire that quality in a person. 2- Sophie from 10 Blind Dates by Ashley Elston I’m in the middle of this book right now, but I ...

Top Ten Tuesday –Favorite Couples (Valentine’s Day /Love Freebie)

  Hi! Top Ten Tuesday is hosted by Jana @ thatartsyreadergirl. . This meme was born out of a love of lists and bringing the book blogging community together. I love doing this meme because it gives me a chance to bond with other bloggers. Every week, Jana will post a topic, and we bloggers will make a post with our list on the topic, or a different one. This week it was Valentines / Love, so I wanted to do a post on favorite couples. I may have done a similar post last year, but I know that there are some new couples on this list.  1- Elizabeth and Mr. Darcy- Pride & Prejudice   This is the only classic couple on this list. I enjoy their relationship because the two characters have little in common, and yet by the end of the novel, they make it work. As you read Pride & Prejudice, you get to see these two find the love each of them was missing. 2- Cath and Levi–Fangirl One of my favorite YA novels needed to appear on this list. I love Cath and Levi becau...

Top Ten Tuesday - Top Ten Historical

Welcome back to Top Ten Tuesday! Our Host is Jana @thatartsyreadergirl . Every week, readers gather and respond to the topic of  the week. This week, we are talking about Top Ten Books in our favorite genre. I love The Classics, YA of all kinds minus Horror and Mystery, and Historical. I choose Historical as I talk about Classics and YA a lot on this blog. These are in no order, just as they came to me. 1- Romanov  by Nadine Brandes I read this Anastasia retelling in nineteen days when it came out. I loved this book so much! About half the novel was the Romanov’s in exile, and their life in a house where they couldn’t do that much. As the story progresses, we see that Nastya is a spell master, so this is how Fantasy is sprinkled in with the Historical Fiction to tell a new story. I loved all aspects of this novel, even the ones that were sad, and almost caused me to throw this book across the room. I will review this book later on this month. I recommend this for any...
