Literary Premise: A Child is Sent to Live Elsewhere: Part One: Happy Boarding School Books A Readers Almanac with Celeste Schantz 2024-09-20 | Hi there! For the past two years I’ve been enjoying other BookTubers discussing their favorite tropes in literature, so I thought I’d do a series on some of mine, starting with books where a child is sent away to live elsewhere. In part one I’m discussing happy boarding school books! in future installments, I’ll be looking at mysteries set in schools, as well as more ominous tales in gothic settings such as orphanages, workhouses and other settings where someone must solve some sort of problem, overcome adversity or come into their own power.Titles Mentioned in This Video:Betty Gordon at Boarding School by Alice B.

A Field Trip to My Primary School: The Old Scholastic Book Club & Sara Crewe! November 14, 2023 A Readers Almanac with Celeste Schantz 2023-11-14 | This is just a tiny love letter to my childhood school days and the books I cherished in my early years. The first one up is Sara Crewe, the Scholastic Book Club edition of Frances Hodgson Burnett’s A Little Princess. I realize that the Scholastic Book club is still going strong, but I’m referring to the titles available back in the’60’s/ ‘70’s. Enjoy! ☺️
