Have you ever read The Secret Garden? It is a favorite of mine from when I first started reading chapter books. It is also one of the few books that I have read more than once. It is a book worth returning to often, when you need a comforting read from your childhood.
The Library Challenge posted this cover for The Secret Garden:
The black background and blue flowers intrigued me, so I took my inspiration from the colors and flowers.
Dark backgrounds are eye catching!
I need to use black backgrounds more often. I like the stark contrast and the soft flowers. It reminds me of Tole background trays.
It is hard to see but there is a little bit of shine and glitter on the background and on the flowers.
Make sure you check out all the other entries on The Library Challenge. They are always fun and creative.

I have another geeky post for you guys. I so love the Library Challenge page. As a former librarian it tickles my fancy and warms my heart. A perfect for challenge me. This week is Reader’s Choice which means I get to choose one of my favorite books-Mr. Popper’s Penguins. Sweet!
When I was a first-grade teacher we would read “chapter books” to our students to encourage them to start reading them for themselves. One perennial favorite was Mr. Popper’s Penguins by Richard and Florence Atwater. This creative and hilarious story has entertained children for years. It sparks their imagination and encourages them to have big dreams and adventures.
Here is the cover of Mr. Popper’s Penguins:
