Let's Read Some $#!7 by Gérard Debuigne & François Couplan and Anna Urbanek
Welcome to another installment of Let’s Read Some $#!7 (LRSS)!
In sum, the purpose of these videos is to introduce educational resources regarding the creation of video games, to promote literacy, to provide world-building tools for creatives, to provide books for escapism, and/or to get banned books into people’s view and whatever I feel like reading aloud at the time.
They go as follows:
1. Read the summary on the back of the book (if applicable).
2. Read the “About the Author” section (if applicable).
3. Read the “Forward”, “Preface”, “Acknowledgments”, and “Author’s Notes” (if applicable).
4. If there is no “Introduction”, read [part of] the first chapter.
If this is something you’re interested in, don’t forget to hit the “Subscribe” and/or “Follow” button!
Even though the purpose is education/book introduction, I only read PORTIONS because of DMCA and Copyright.
Today, I read PORTIONS of 2 books:

Zooni Tales: Keep It Up, Plucky Pup by Vikram Madan
4 out of 5 stars
This was a cute book for early readers that reminded me of Dr. Seuss as it had lots of rhyming in each chapter. Zooni, the plucky pup, goes on adventures and loses a shoe, goes on a boat, and tries to save his friend Cat who fell down a whole! His friends help him as best they can--though, sometimes they cause more problems. Zooni takes it all in stride and is glad to have his friends around him.
It would be a great book to readaloud to young ones who may not be ready to read by themselves to help them learn new words.
A brand new classic Sesame Street read-along double-feature coming at ya this morning from @speekygeeky and Geeky Jr's very own Mr. Geek-E (HEY, that's ME!).
Today's delightful stories are "THE ERNIE AND BERT BOOK" and "OSCAR'S GROUCHY SOUNDS". https://youtu.be/3ZQXDcFb7Ww?si=EsulVBgnswkIZjkV
Grab a book off your shelves, go to a library, turn off the internet, find a comfortable seat, and enjoy what a book can give you - imagine going to another world, experiencing something new through the words that you read on a page. Today is a day that National Book Lovers love, another reason just to be able to disconnect and immerse themselves into their book. You can even take this opportunity to read to your child, a child read to you, their grandparents, pets, friends, etc.
Just as long as they are reading, that is the purpose of National Read a Book Day!
