I’m In a Celebrating Mood This October!

September 30, 2026 / rosieadmin / 2 Comments

Welcome October 2026!

One of my favorite months of the year is October! I love the feel of the cooler weather; the energy and the smells fall brings. It makes me want to celebrate everything! Shouldn’t we always do that anyway? I’m sure going to give my best to do so this month.

What You Will Find in This Month’s Post

*Celebrating a Special Day

*Celebrating Four Book Birthdays

*Celebrating Progress on My Next Book

*Celebrating the Books I’ve Read and Reviewed

*Celebrating This Easy and Tasty Chicken Noodle Casserole Recipe

*Celebrating Some Art Projects I Made in 2024

Let’s get started…

Celebrating a Special Day

October is the month my husband and I started dating, and then we married six years later on the exact same day, October 21st. So yes, we have been together for a very long time. We are so very thankful for each other and our family.

Celebrating Four Book Birthdays

Happy Book Birthday to these titles! 🙂

► “Maggie, Millie, and Merries’ Magical Adventure” – October 04, 2014

"Maggie, Millie, and Merrie's Magical Adventure," by Rosie Russell — “Maggie, Millie, and Merrie’s Magical Adventure”

What’s it about:

“The triplets are more than excited to move in the very same home that their mother had grown up in on Whimsical Avenue. Come along and join “Maggie, Millie, and Merrie’s, Magical Adventure.
Enjoy the fun project included at the end of the book!”

What fun it was to make this book back in the day. Yes, I still make this art project all the time, too!

► “Beasley’s Journey” – October 10, 2014

Beasley's Journey
Rosie Russell — Beasley’s Journey

What’s it about:

“Everybody loves Beasley!

“Beasley goes on an unexpected journey after his family moves from the big city.
He meets many interesting friends along the way. Will he make it to his destination? Come along to find out.!”

Again, one of my early books, and it will always hold a special place in my heart. Beasley is named after a special beagle puppy named Goergie we had when I was 4 years old.

► “Maggie, Millie, and Merries Magical Mail” – October 11, 2019

"Maggie, Millie, and Merrie's Mystery Mail," by Rosie Russell — Maggie, Millie, and Merrie’s Mystery Mail

What’s it about:

“The triplets are back, and my, have they grown. The Midwest winter strikes them with a vengeance of snow. Stuck in the house with too many snow days, they turn grumpy with nothing to do. That is, until a mysterious package is delivered. Will the trio be pulled from their boredom as mail arrives each day?”

I love the art project in this book and it’s fun and easy to make with many possibilities. 🙂

► “Maggie, Millie, and Merrie’s Magical Coins” – October 27, 2015

"Maggie, Millie, and Merrie's Magical Coins," by Rosie Russell — “Maggie, Millie, and Merrie’s Magical Coins “

What’s it about:

“The is book two from “Maggie, Millie, and Merrie’s Magical Adventure.”

The triplets enjoy a fun visit with Grandmother when she returns from Florida. As they are helping her go through the attic, they find a wooden box. Inside, there are three bright shiny coins. Grandmother tells them they are magical. What do the magical coins hold? Readers will enjoy many fun activities as this story unfolds.”

This book was inspired from the love I have with dollhouses and miniatures.

Celebrating Progress on My Next Book

I’m doing a happy dance as I’m getting lots of work done on my next book. I will be searching for Beta Readers in the coming months. It will be a while, but I think this book will finally happen! (For a minute there, I wasn’t sure.) 🙁

I’ve even switched up a few things about the story, so if you read my first copy, it will be different. I’ll keep you all posted.

Celebrating the Books I’ve Read and Reviewed

It’s not hard to celebrate reading good books, right?

These next 3 books by author and illustrator, Richard Byrne were so fun and very interactive for readers!

They all get 5 Stars from me!

“We’re in the Wrong Book”

What’s it About:

“When a potato sack race goes awry, Bella and Ben find themselves bumped from their familiar page into uncharted territory. It’s a brave new world of lollipops and sphinxes—and Bella and Ben are on one page-turning adventure. How will they find their way back into their very own book?”

My Review:

When Bella’s dog accidently pushes Bella and Ben into the wrong picture book, they will explore adventurous styles of different stories. What a fun and interactive book to read!

“This Book Just Stole My Cat!”

What’s it About:

“When Ben’s cat disappears into the gutter of the book, Bella joins in the search-and-rescue mission. But when the helpers disappear one after another, Ben realizes it’s up to him to set things right. Cleverly using the physicality of the book, This book just stole my cat! is kid-friendly fun!”

My Review:

Another fun book by, Richard Byrne. Readers will turn the pages for an interactive adventure looking for Ben’s cat. Love the format and the illustrations in this one, too!

“The Case of the Missing Chalk Drawings”

What’s it About:

“The chalks are drawing flowers on the chalkboard, but someone keeps stealing their artwork! Who could the thief be? Fortunately, Sergeant Blue is on the case and determined to solve the crime.”

My Review:

What a great story for parents, teachers, and readers to discuss with this one. Not everything is what it seems. Each interactive page will reveal more of the story. What happened to the chalk drawings?

I hope to read more of this author and illustrator’s books. 🙂

Celebrating This Easy and Tasty Chicken Noodle Casserole Recipe

It’s so nice to think of meals that require the oven since our heat waves have ended. It’s a wonderful time of year to celebrate that.

Here’s a tasty recipe we tried. You can use any pasta you like. I liked the larger shell ones in this, but my husband prefers the smaller ones. Let me know if you make this and what you think. It’s a perfect fall and winter meal. Add just a side of vegetables or a salad and you are good to go.

Don’t forget to read my tip at the end.

Recipe:

Ingredients:

1/2 of a Rotisserie Chicken, skin removed. Chopped. (Save the other half for another meal to freeze?)

1 1/2 cups of dry large, shelled pasta. Cook according to the directions, al dente.

1 can of Cream of Chicken Soup (We used the “Heart Healthy” version.)

1 can of water

1 envelope of dry Italian Dressing. (These come in a box in your salad dressing isle.)

1/ 2 block of cream cheese (We used the 1/3 less fat kind.)

One 7 ounce pack of cheese, shredded. (We used Cheddar Cheese, 2% less fat, but feel free to use whatever cheese you like.)

Directions:

In a saucepan, melt the soup, water, cream cheese. Once it’s all mixed and melted, add the dry dressing mix. Let this mixture simmer on low for about 15 minutes, stirring often so it won’t stick.

When your pasta is cooked, drained, and rinsed, add to a sprayed 9×13 pan.

Sprinkle around the cut-up chicken.

Pour your soup mixture over the pasta and chicken and poke it with a fork to incorporate. You do not have to stir.

Top with shredded cheese.

Bake at 350 degrees for 30 minutes or until bubbly and slightly brown.

Let set for 5-10 minutes before serving.

Tip:

I don’t know about you, but I never can get the consistency right for homemade Mac and Cheese. It occurred to me I could leave out the chicken, and it would be just that! I’m going to give this a try the next holiday meal I make. 🙂

Celebrating Some Art Projects I Made in 2024

I’m celebrating all the memories that pop up on Facebook since we lost many of our photos. We probably have most of them saved in our black box, but they would be hard to find.

I had a blast with this one in 2024.

I’m not a huge Halloween person but enjoy it for the kids. It was a lot of work to make this pop out card for our little ones a few years ago. It’s not so bad if you do it in stages. I’m sure I will be making one again someday.

Here’s when it was a mess and I had to put it together. Ha! 🙂

This is another angle of the completed card. See all the layers and how it expands and pops out? Again, this took a lot of time, but it was well worth it! 🙂

If you follow me on Facebook, you have already seen this next one.

I made this one with the same design, but I added it to a canvas.

This next project, I made completely by accident. 🙂

Can you guess what this is?

It’s a soap bubble I found on our kitchen counter. It made me laugh so I took a picture of it and turned it into this…

How I did this:
*I spliced the photo in half and merged together in Photoshop
*Then, drew the black cat
*Cloned the spots that look like flying books
*Found a bright blue paint and painted with an “overlay” effect

That’s all I have for now.

Books by Rose Acrostic August Poem

July 29, 2026 / rosieadmin / 10 Comments

It’s August 2026! Wow, summer is moving right along. We just had a huge heat wave and hoping for temperatures back in the 80s, or even 90s, for this month. Meanwhile, we have lots going on here at Books by Rose.

What You Will Find in This Month’s Post

*Acrostic August Poem

*Updates On My Next Book

*Books I’ve Read and Reviewed

Let’s get started…

Acrostic August Poem

If you have read my book, ► “Stella and The Four Seasons,” then you know I love creating “acrostic poems.”

I hope you will write one, too. If you do, please share yours in the comment section below. Use “August,” or any word you want. After you read mine, I left a few rules to get you started.

Here’s my personal poem I’m writing for “August.”

Autumn will be here before we know it

Unwind and enjoy the rest of summer

Games of Fantasy Football conversations fill the rooms

Under a shady tree, I hope to read a book

Summer break is almost over 🙁

Tomatoes ripen on the vines

Explanation of my personal poem…

August reminds me of a lot of great things, but the end of summer is always a bit sad for me for awhile. I try and “unwind” and really enjoy the days outside. When our guys were little, there was nothing I enjoyed more than sitting under one of our big shade trees in our backyard, watching them play while I’d read a book.

We also know a big treat is coming for us in the Fall and Autumn months. Those big trees brings us warm golden colors of red, orange, and yellow.

When I think of football season, to me it starts in the fall. Around here though, it’s that time of year where my family starts filling the rooms with conversations of Games of Fantasy Football. I enjoy watching them enjoy it all, but…I’m just sad baseball has to come to an end for the season, other than watching the World Series games, of course. I’ll keep busy planning treats for those upcoming events.

I have a feeling some of those treats will include tomatoes. Hopefully by the end of August, we’ll have lots of tomatoes from our basket/garden, ha.

Don’t forget to comment with your August Acrostic poem, or any Acrostic Poem, for that matter.

A few rules on those…

*Pick a “key” word and write it vertical big and bold!

*You can use one word to go with the subject your “key” word.

*They can be made with sentences or small phrases that pertain to your “key” word.

*Use the five senses trick to help you write your poem

*Acrostic poems can have punctuation with commas after each sentence or phrase, adding a period at the end. If you decide to add these, be consistent using them on each line.

Let me know if you have any questions.

PS. If you have not read “Stella and the Four Seasons” I’d appreciate it if you added it to your “to read” shelf on Goodreads. Here is the link to do so. If you have read her book, I’d appreciate some love for her story with a rating of stars or a review either on Amazon, (link above,) or Goodreads. Thank you, thank you! 💚 ► Stella’s book on Goodreads.

Updates On My Next Book

I finally was able to have a few productive days to figure out my next book. I’m still learning Procreate on my ipad, but at least I have some of the major things out of the way to move forward…I hope. 🙂

We also are having some PC problems where all my files are saved. It’s a new computer which makes it even more frustrating. Oh well, l’m trying to stay calm through this whole thing. 🙂

However, I have some days I feel like Bunny on page 40.

I’ll keep you posted. 🙂

Books I’ve Read and Reviewed

All 5 Stars from me!

My Dog Lyle by, Jennifer P. Goldfinger

(Picture Book)

What’s It About?

Lyle may look like an ordinary dog to some people, but not to the little girl who loves him. She sees all the things that make him special: the way he gets “surprised” by skunks, eats grass to make himself sick when he has a tummyache, and drinks out of the toilet bowl when he’s thirsty. By the time the list of Lyle’s “unique” talents is complete, readers will agree that he’s a very special dog.

My Review:

Delightful illustrations and a fun book for all dog lovers. If you like the repetition of the adjectives, you’ll like this one. I can see it being a great read-a-loud with kids chanting back the words for each section.

“Don’t Lose Mr. Cuddles: Life Lessons from Chip the Dog” by, Dev Petty, Mike Boldt (illustrator) (Book 3)

(Picture Book)

What’s It About?

Chip the dog from Don’t Eat Bees and Don’t Trust Cats is back, but his best stuffie Mr. Cuddles is MISSING! Any child who has ever lost a toy will relate!

Chip and his best friend Mr. Cuddles have been through a lot together, including that terrible time when Mr. Cuddles had to go in the washing machine. The two are inseparable, but now . . . Mr. Cuddles is GONE! Where could he be? How will Chip cope without his constant companion? And what role did Mittens the cat have in this mystery?

Young readers will love following Chip’s feverish search for Mr. Cuddles, which ends with a happy, fluffy, and super-silly reunion.

My Review:

This is a super cute story. When Chip loses his best friend, Mr. Cuddles, the search for him is laugh-out-loud funny. Readers will want to hear, and read, this story over and over again. (They will enjoy the handwritten fonts.)

I understand there are more of Chip’s books which I will have to find and read.

“Whispers Across the Prairie: Listening With the Heart” by, Kathy J. Perry, Claudia Gadotti (Illustrator)

(Middle Grade)

What’s It About?

On the wide prairie, friendship begins in silence.

On the wide Missouri prairie, ten-year-old Emeline O’Connor knows how to listen-to the wind moving through tall grass, to the rhythm of farm life, to the steady comfort of her family’s love.

But when a new neighbor boy arrives-one who does not speak and seems to live by different rules of sound and silence-Emeline realizes there are many kinds of listening she has yet to learn.

As she navigates chores, friendships, and misunderstandings, Emeline must decide whether she is brave enough to slow down, pay attention, and truly see someone who communicates in ways unfamiliar to her. With patience, kindness, and a growing understanding of the world beyond her own experiences, she begins to discover that some of the most important conversations happen without words at all.

Whispers Across the Prairie is a tender historical novel about empathy, friendship, and learning to listen with the heart.

My Review:

Emeline befriends a neighbor boy close to her age and it changes how she looks at the world. Her new friend is hearing impaired.

“Whispers Across the Prairie” is a beautifully written book and would be an excellent book for read a louds at home and in classrooms.

I’m sure a lot of research went into writing this book. I’m going to interview author, Kathy J. Perry soon to reveal more of this story. Keep watching.

Tell Us About You!

That’s all I have for this month. I wish you all a wonderful August filled with summery fun! Don’t forget to write us a “Acrostic Poem” on your plans or happenings for August.

As always…

Happy Reading!

Celebrating July at Books by Rose

July 9, 2026 / rosieadmin / 10 Comments

In more ways than one, we are celebrating July this month.

What you will find in this blog post:

*Happy 250th Birthday America

*How We Celebrated

*I Treated Myself to Something Special

*Books I’ve Read and Reviewed

Happy 250th Birthday America

Did you know?

Quote from Wikipedia:

“The United States Semiquincentennial,^[a] also called the Sestercentennial (two and a half centuries), or the Quarter Millennium, will be the 250th anniversary of the United States Declaration of Independence.”

A little tidbit about me. I graduated high school in our “bicentennial” year. It’s hard to believe it’s been that long ago. I didn’t appreciate the history of this historical time much back then like I do now. In my days at school during history classes, there were lots of dates and events to memorize. I love how schools are doing more interactive activities nowadays to engage learning.

How about you?

*Did you enjoy learning about history when you were young?

*Do you enjoy learning about history now?

How We Celebrated

As always, we celebrated with family and friends in our driveway. Of course there always has to be food, right? You might remember the “Taco Bar” I talked about back another post, ► “Reflections and Helpful Hints.” I’ll go ahead and repost that here.

We invested in a three pot crockpot years ago and it has been a lifesaver for crowds. It has one large pot in the middle and two smaller ones on the sides.

Fill your taco meat in the middle, cheese dip in one of the smaller ones, and refried beans in the other small one. Have all your other ingredients and dips ready to go and everyone serves themselves. It’s always a big hit!

A little tidbit on serving big crowds. 🙂

*Watch how your guests fix their plates.

*Do they struggle to find the right utensils?

*Do they have a hard time serving themselves in the space you provided?

*What’s missing that would make everything go smoother?

*I’ve done so many of these events over the holidays and it helps to have everything ready. I try and get the big parts out of the way the day before.

*Oh, and have paper towels on hand for any mishaps. Expect them to happen and you will feel less stressed.

I Treated Myself to Something Special

After months and months of research, I broke down and bought an ipad, Apple Pen, and Procreate. Phew, it’s going to take me more time to learn these new items and program. (Any suggestions are highly appreciated.)

So far, I’m loving it. I plan to work on my next book with it. I’ll still use our PC, other drawing apps to finish it up, so I have a lot of tabs going at the same time, ha! So far, I have this to show you…

I’ll keep you posted on how things go.

Books I’ve Read and Reviewed

“Some Writer,” E.B. White by Melissa Sweet

Young, middle, and older readers will be inspired by this one!

What Is It About?

Caldecott Honor winner Mellissa Sweet mixes White’s personal letters, photos, and family ephemera with her own exquisite artwork to tell the story of this American literary icon. Readers young and old will be fascinated and inspired by the journalist, New Yorker contributor, and children’s book author who loved words his whole life. This authorized tribute, a New York Times bestseller, includes an afterword by Martha White, his granddaughter.

My Review:

I loved this book! If you are a fan of author E. B. White’s work, you will enjoy this one, too!

If you have been following my blogs, you probably have noticed I’m loving the artwork Melissa Sweet displays in her books. This one will keep you turning the pages with collage art and interesting information on E. B. White’s life. Readers will enjoy all the facts about how he grew into a writer and succeeded with books like, “Stuart Little,” Charlotte’s Web,” and more. I know I will re-reading them all soon.

Ooh, here’s another one!

“Balloons Over Broadway. The True Story of the Puppeteer of Macy’s Parade,” ” by author and illustrator, Melissia Sweet

What Is It About?

Meet the master puppeteer who invented the first balloons for the Macy’s Thanksgiving Day Parade. Melissa Sweet brings to life the inspirational story of the puppeteer who invented the giant balloons floating in the sky during the annual parade celebrating Thanksgiving. The Caldecott Honor artist brilliantly captures the essence of Tony Sarg, a self-taught immigrant with a fascinating imagination.

The collage illustrations coupled with Sweet’s storytelling portray Sarg’s joy in his childhood inventions and his ingenious balloon creations that still bring delight to viewers around the country. This nonfiction illustrated book will capture the hearts of all ages.

My Review:

Another book I loved, but it also made me sad, which I will get to in a bit.

This book is beautifully illustrated with another inspiring story about a man with a passion from when he was a child. He had been raised around puppets and inherited his grandmother’s collection of them. This developed as a hobby for him, and finally in 1917, turned them into a profession.

I loved the detailed historical content about the Macy’s Day Parade and behind the work of Tony Sarg.

What made me sad after reading this book?

Do people, especially young ones, watch the parades on Thanksgiving Day anymore? I know when I was growing up, we wouldn’t have missed it. I asked my followers on my “Books by Rose” Facebook page if they still enjoyed watching the Thanksgiving parades. Only a handful of them said they did. How about you?

I really hope parents and readers can find this book and read up on the work it takes to make these amazing balloons before watching the parade. I know I will be watching. 🙂

Last one…

“I Caught You,” by Izzy B.

What Is It About?

Join Dad Bear and Little Bear as they journey to their beloved fishing spot. Despite their anticipation to catch a fish, they end up empty-handed. Little Bear is disappointed, but Dad Bear reveals an invaluable life lesson: the day’s true catch was something far more precious— the love and memories shared between them.

My Review:

I was online before Father’s Day and author and illustrator, Izzy B, was giving this book away as a free download. I’m so glad I was able to get this copy because it’s such a sweet book.

This tender tale between a father and son, will open some goodness of this world with this outdoor fishing themed story. Great for grandfather’s and grandsons, (grandchildren) to read together, too. I loved it and I hope you all will get a chance to read it, too.

That’s all I have for this month. Let’s hear about you!

How is your summer going? What big plans do you have? Or, are you just taking it easy and enjoying your time outside and doing nothing? (That’s okay, too.) In fact, I posted this a week ago so don’t forget…

As always,

Happy Reading!

“May I Help You?” From Books by Rose

April 29, 2026 / rosieadmin / 4 Comments

May 2026 has arrived!

Happy May

Here in the Midwest, we welcome the days we can open up the windows and breath the fresh air. Going outside without a coat, the warm sunshine, watching nature do it’s springy thing with flowers and trees blooming.

May also has many holidays to celebrate “helpers” and those who have given us much to be grateful for. We will also explore ways to find helpers when needed in this month’s blog post, too. 🙂

First, let’s talk about our “May Helpers.”

Helpers

These popular days in May are ways we can celebrate the important things people do to make our daily lives better.

“National Teacher Appreciation Day”

This celebration starts on the first Tuesday and runs for a full week in May. Schools and communities recognizes teachers’ and the impact they make and the dedication to educate our children. 💜

Thank you

Research online to find, crafts to make, gifts to give, and ways to honor your child’s teacher, or a teacher you know.

Our next helpers are…

Nurses!

“National Nurses Week” runs from May 06, 2026 – May 12, 2026.

Don’t forget to thank the nurses you know for their dedication to patient care and those in the healthcare system. What would we do without the great nurses in our world? 🧡

Nurse

Let’s not forget the 2nd Sunday in May to celebrate…

“Mother’s Day”

Mother’s Day can bring a lot of heartfelt moments of feelings. It’s a day that brings me much happiness as I reflect on the wonderful mother we had and the joy I find in being a mother to our sons, who we adore. 🩷

If you have young ones in your life, what a fun time to gather your art supplies and make special projects for their special loved ones in their life.

The last Monday in May is…

“Memorial Day”

Here in the USA, citizens honor those fallen military service members who have risked their lives to keep our country safe. Many ceremonies are spread across America to celebrate this special day.

Now, let’s talk about helpers and…

How To Seek Great Helpers…

We all need help from time to time, right? How do we go about looking for those trusted individuals for the things we need help with? In today’s world, one doesn’t know if they are asking a real person or a robot. Not everything we look up online is bad by any means, some can be very helpful. Do your homework and think of those you know first to get your answers and help. Here are some ideas on how to go about just that. 🙂

Help
Credit Image: pexels-ann-h-45017-19108347

*Study up on what you need help with. This helps you to ask all the right questions to those individuals you seek out.

*Pick someone who has much knowledge about what you need help with. You’ll know right away by visiting with them first and finding out their credentials.

*Pick someone that is passionate at what they do. Again, after visiting with them, you will learn a lot of information about how much they know and how much they love what they do.

*Trust your gut instinct. I think this is the most important one of all. If something doesn’t feel right, then it probably isn’t.

Speaking of “Helpers,” I happen to be lucky to know many experts on what they do. Authors, Artists, and many more who stand by their services and great advice and what they have to offer.

Please leave your name in the comment section if you have valuable advice to help others. If you have written books to help others, let us know the titles. If you are an illustrator and want to share your services, leave us your link so those reading this so they can find your work.

Last, but not least…

Books I’ve Read and Reviewed

“A Small Kindness,” by author Stacy McAnulty and illustrator Wendy Leach

► Read What It’s About

My Review:

This is a super sweet book that will open up the best discussions with your young readers on what kindness is and how it is spread from one person to another. Illustrator, Wendy Leach did a beautiful job adding a special touch to each page. I won’t give that part away, you’ll have to check it out for yourself. You will love, I’m sure. ❤️

“The Green Piano: How Little Me Found Music,” by Roberta Flack, Tonya Bolden and illustrator, Hayden Goodman.

► Read What It’s About

A lovely story how Roberta Flack began her journey into music. Not everything turned out the way it started, though. What a wonderful book for young readers to learn about this admired legend. 💚

“The Winter Dollhouse,” by Laura Amy Schlitz (Middle Grade)

"The Winter of the Dollhouse," by author Laura Amy Schlitz

► Read What It’s About

My Review:

“The Winter of the Dollhouse,” by author Laura Amy Schlitz is another book I didn’t want to end. It’s a sweet story that will open many moral discussions. If you enjoy miniatures and dollhouses, you will love this Middle Grade book, too. It’s a great book for all ages and would make for a fun read aloud.
I’m looking forward to reading more of Laura Amy Schlitz’s books.

What I’m Reading Now…

“Pocket Bear,” by Katherine Applegate

(I didn’t realized when I picked these two books how parallel they are as far as content. “The Winter Dollhouse” and “Pocket Bear, they are both about toys. 🙂 I’ll be back next month with an update on “Pocket Bear” and more children’s and middle grade books.) .

The month brings many chances to start again, like spring itself, May offers hope and fresh new beginnings to everyone, including those finishing up a school year and graduations.

Do you have a favorite moment in May that you’d like to share?

Do you have some May news you’d like to share?

Let’s celebrate this magical month together and maybe help someone along the way. If you are a “helper,” don’t forget to leave us a note for our readers.

Happy May everyone,

As always,

Happy Reading! ❤️
