Hi everyone! We are joining Comedy Plus’ Awww….Mondays.
Joanie and Gremmie are posing with the books I am currently reading. All three are worth a mention.
Of Time and Turtles: Mending the World Shell by Shattered Shell by Sy Montgomery is really interesting. It is all about a couple who rescue turtles. I love turtles. I had two for pets for many years.
The Storyteller: Tales of Life and Music by David Grohl. He founded The Foo Fighters alternative rock band. I am more of a classic rock kind of girl so I had no idea who he was. I enjoy reading life stories to see how people climb to fame so I am enjoying this.
And lastly, Being Henry: The Fonz and Beyond by Henry Winkler. As a kid, I was a huge fan of The Fonz so I was eager to read this.
Joanie and Gremmie look very cute with the books! They all sound interesting! I really like turtles too! XO
Yes, they are. 🙂

Joanie and Gremmie look very interested in the books.
MOL! 🙂 XO
You always have such an eclectic selection of reading material – which means you’re interested in everything! My brother and I had turtles when we were kids……it was a big craze back then and the tiny turtles were fun to play with. I’m sure the turtles would have preferred their natural habitat over the plastic “homes” that pet shops sold!
Hugs, Pam
Thank you. Yes, they were popular until it became illegal to see any turtle under 4 inches. 🙂 XO
Oh, mama loves turtles, too, and we love your recommendations, sparking interest in other material than novels, histories, and such. You might enjoy Jaqueline Winspear’s Next Year We’ll All Be Laughing….from the author of the Maisie Dobbs series set in WW I and II.
Thank you. I did read that a while ago and enjoyed it. I believe you recommended it. I am now reading the Thursday Murder Club you recommended. XO
Dad says thanks for the tip. He wants to read Dave Grohl’s book, and says one day hopes to see the
Foo Fighters in person, as long as tickets don’t drain the bank account.
You’re welcome. 🙂
Henry Winkler was always a great actor I still enjoy seeing when he’s doing something. By the way, I bought the magazine over the weekend and I read about your two kitties. I haven’t known you where the cat’s long enough to realize where you’ve managed to save them. How far did these sisters have to travel to get them to you?
Awww..thank you for getting the magazine. The kitties were driven from California to Massachusetts- 3000 miles. XO
Hm. Fonz! I might like that one too!
Yes, you would. 🙂 XO
We certainly love turtles. Sea turtles are a big interest and we support them through Mote Marine here in Florida… but we love them all. Joanie and Gremmie are always fun to see at your book reviews!
How kind of you to help them. XO
A book about turtle rescuing 🐢💗 … and what did you think about the Henry Winkler book?
Yes, you will love it. 🙂 And Henry Winkler’s book is good too. XO
awww, the literary kitty! 🙂 I like books like these, true stories about real people – memoirs. We had a box turtle for a long time, too. 🙂
Memoirs are my favorite. 🙂 How long did your turtle live for? Mine lived 11 and 13 yrs which doesn’t seem long. XO
I always liked Henry Winkler and remember the Fonz from early on. Joanie and Gremmie have good taste in books.
Thank you. 🙂 XO
You’re welcome.
Great posers and three great reads too. I love Henry Winkler.
Thank you for joining the Awww Mondays Blog Hop.
Have a fabulous Awww Monday and week, Ellen. Scritches to the kitties. xo ♥
Thank you. XO
I want to read the Henry Winkler book. I loved him on Happy Days way back when 🙂
It is a good book. 🙂
Chaplin: “Hmm, we have never had a turtle here. But Dennis had a turtle stuffie once.”
Oona: “Oona has never seen such a stuffie.”
Chaplin: “Yes well bad things tended to happen to Dennis’s stuffies.”
Charlee: “Does the book explain how it’s turtles all the way down? I have never been able to figure that one out.”
Lulu: “Our neighbors have a tortoise. She is huge. She tried to dig her way into our yard once.”
Java Bean: “Ayyy, yes, that was super interesting to investigate! Until Dada made us stop.”
I bet you would have loved a visit from the tortoise. 🙂
I have a hold on the new Henry Winkler book and am looking forward to rewind it.
It will be worth the wait. 🙂 XO

Ellen,
You have such wide range of literature. It’s interesting to see what books you pick up to read. Thanks for sharing, my dear!
Thank you. 🙂 XO
These sound like great books. When I was a kid I had to watch Happy Days every week. Liked the Fonz too:)
Same here. I love Fonzie. 🙂 XO
Those look great and I’ve heard the Being Henry is a good one.
Thank you. 🙂
David Grohl was an extra on an X-Files ep; I’ve always liked that about him.
I didn’t know that. 🙂
The books sound fascinating, as usual. There are so many great books, and there’s so little time.
Thank you for posing, Joanie and Gremmie.
Exactly. I have over 800 on my list to read. XO
