July 31st, 2016 by jules
I’ve got a review over at BookPage of Ian Lendler’s Saturday (Neal Porter Books/Roaring Brook, July 2016), illustrated by Serge Bloch. That review is here. Below are some spreads from the book; I always like to see Serge’s art.

Note for any new readers: 7-Imp’s 7 Kicks is a weekly meeting ground for taking some time to reflect on Seven(ish) Exceptionally Fabulous, Beautiful, Interesting, Hilarious, or Otherwise Positive Noteworthy Things from the past week, whether book-related or not, that happened to you. New kickers are always welcome.
This is it! Moving weekend, that is. I am typing this earlier in the week, but it’s possible my computer won’t even be connected today (that is, Sunday — the day you read this). I will be able, however, to read your kicks via my phone, so …
What are YOUR kicks this week?
Hello, Imps!
Hello, Jules and family! (Have fun! Good luck!)
Hello, Ian and Saturday on a Sunday!

I love the picture of the child saying he has to wake up his parents.
Jules, good luck with the move.
LW, love show and tell.
My kicks, 1-7: Camp Odell, time with my college dorm peeps. Our dorm was named Odell. We’re up on the Washington peninsula. This is our 15th year.
Have a great week.
Such fun illustrations this week!
Happy moving Jules! Hope it all goes smoothly.
LW -Love your kicks Good & Glad the most this week.
Jone – hooray for fun times with old friends.
My kicks this week:
1) Road trip for work.
2) Seeing a part of Oregon I had not seen before, the High Desert in south eastern Oregon, very beautiful.
3) Saw 2 badgers run across the highway.
4) Made friends with a sheep.
5) Seeing good friends in Bend on my way home.
6) Coming home to a happy Daisy after days away.
7) Crashing on the couch with Daisy & bingeing the last 4 episodes of Stranger Things. It was a good week.
Have a wonderful week everyone!
I’m here, though every. muscle. in. my. body. aches. But at least everything we own is in ONE place now.
Little Willow: There’s a nice alliteration to your kicks there.
Jone: It sounds lovely at Camp Odell.
Rachel: Your trip sounds fun too. Did you enjoy Stranger Things?
Going to collapse into bed now.
