For the Last Hop of 2014, I want to share with you those places we visited in the UK that have touched my heart.
Stonehenge on Salisbury Plain with all of its magic.
Kensington Palace and
Diana's Memorial Fountain
Walking Hadrian's Wall
The Tower of London's Tribute to the Fallen Men and Women of WWI
Those Magnificient Elgin Marbles
And this man who is as different from me as Scotland is from England, but we still belong together and would be lost without each other.
To his sometimes dismay, he does follow me everywhere:
From the shores of Lake Nassar, Egypt
to the Seawall on Caernarfon Bay, Wales off the Irish Sea!
And now....
This Hop Carpinello's Writing Pages brings you interviews with two MG authors:
So, you are always more than welcome to join us by popping in a post and hopping around to meet some of your fellow Kid Lit bloggers and authors! We are pleased to be welcoming a new Permanent Hostess to the Hop. Please welcome Naila from Reading Authors, a fabulous book blog. Welcome Naila! Also, please note that for the month of December, we will only be hosting one Kid Lit Blog Hop which will be open for 2 weeks, instead of one.
Happy Hopping everyone and enjoy the Hop!
Kid Lit Blog Hop Rules *Please Read*
1. We ask that you kindly follow your hosts. You can follow us any way you choose (Email, GFC, Twitter, Facebook, G+, Pinterest, etc.), but we've added our preferences below. If you could just give us a quick "follow" or "like" that would be much appreciated! Make sure to leave us a message if you are following us (i.e., on Twitter or Facebook or on our websites) and we will be sure to follow you back. Thanks! :-)
Hostesses:
2. Link up any Kid Lit related post. This can be a link to a children’s book review, a discussion about children’s literature/literacy, or a post on a recently-read children’s book or one that you love from your childhood.
* Don't link directly to your blog, it must be a specific post.*
* For Authors, we prefer you to link to your blog if you have one. Please link unique posts each time ~ no repeats please. *
* Make sure you include an image relevant to the POST (e.g., book cover), not your blog button or photo of yourself.*
* Feel free to link more than one post.*
3. Please visit AT LEAST the TWO LINKS directly ahead of your own and leave them some love in the form of a comment. We are trying to build a community of bloggers, readers, parents, authors, and others who are as passionate about children’s literature as we are so please CONNECT and follow any or all of the blogs that interest you!
4. If you like, grab the button above and put it somewhere on your blog, preferably the post you're linking up. If you'd prefer, you can just add a text link back to this Hop so that others can find it and check out all these great book links!
5. It would really help us get the word out about the Kid Lit Blog Hop if you would be so kind as to tweet, share, and spread the word about the Hop!
Interested in co-hosting the Kid Lit Blog Hop? If you've joined us before, you are welcome to join us again! Please email renee @ motherdaughterbookreviews (dot) com and put Co-Hosting Blog Hop in the subject line.
Happy Hopping!
Nice to see you got around a bit, and to some of my favourite places too :)
ReplyDeleteWe loved it, Jemima. Just wished we could have seen more. We left High Wycombe and returned there 1700 miles later!
DeleteWow, love the photos. How very sweet. We have got to get to the UK one of these years. Thank you for sharing and inspiring us.
