Sadly this is the end of this weeks Pomme but a new one will be out in two weeks time. Make sure to leave a comment.
Muy bien chica’s
Exciting edition the Norwegian facts are truly mind blowing!
I think the Moonlight Dreamers books and and “Am I Normal Yet” [I will look up the authors] need a mention too. Also Ursula LeGuin: “The Earthsea Trilogy” and “The Dispossessed” and “The Left of Hand of Darkness”
I am missing the daily diary entries from Lily… I am assuming that they might have become lost on the way home. Or maybe I just can’t find them.
There are 4 famous women, 2 is Amelia Earhart, 3 is Malala but i dont know 1 or 4. When the penguin was knighted, did he have to kneel down and if so how did he do it. Arise Sir Penguin.
Excellent 😃😃
