Book Review: The Clothesline

Hey everyone,

Chirp reader Reggie just read a new Owlkids book called The Clothesline by Orbie. It’s about a young boy (also named Reggie!) who accidentally gets stuck hanging on a clothesline. Check out Reggie’s review of this fun and suspenseful read down below!

“I think other kids would like this book. It is good. It is funny and the pictures are nice. There is a cat and a lollipop. It also has a good lesson.
Five stars out of five.”
– Reggie, 5

Thanks for your review, Reggie! We can’t wait to check out this book.

What are you reading this summer? Let me know in the comments!

When Books Come Out To Play

Hi readers,

There’s something strange going on at night at a Toronto bookstore… check it out below!

Wasn’t that amazing? The stop-motion video is called The Joy of Books and it was made over 4 nights after all the bookstore employees went home. The filmmaker had 25 helpers move all the books on and off the shelves! I think they did a spectacular job!

Did you recognize any of the chidlren’s books that came out to play? I spotted Mr. Pusskins and Little Whiskers by Sam Lloyd. Let me know if you spotted any others!

Talk soon,
