One of my favorite #books is The Singing Creek Where the Willows Grow by Opal Whitely. This child’s #diary amazed me. We see the world of her neighbors and her animal companions through a child’s lens. I also love her language. From the opening paragraph, when she explains, “I found the near woods first day I did go explores,” you realize Whitley interprets her world through an odd, childish #syntax. I found it refreshing.
