Love in Bloom Hop
May 18-23, 2012
 
Welcome to the Songs and Stories stop on the Love in Bloom book hop! The blog is being taken over for a day by Sasha Soren so she can give a lovely book to you. All I did was cut and paste and make sure she didn't add anything crazy like flying sheep. :)

summer read.

Examples:
- I was intrigued by the character of the shapeshifting raven, and I'm curious about his name.
- I'd be interested in seeing what's behind the magical doors at the very end of the video.
- My favorite part of the video is watching the different colors come out of the teapot, for some strange reason.
- My favorite part of the video was watching Alice floating away at the very beginning, I didn't expect that! - My favorite part of the video was the little duck, because he's so cute
- although I'm most curious about the Red Queen. ((or can add your own example at top, you know, 'personally, liked such-and-such because...'))

  2. My favorite part is definitely watching Alice floating away at the beginning, how I wish I could do that! And for some reason I'm very intrigued by the perpetually inebriated Muse and her sarcastic raven. Random magic... I believe!
