A unique representation of the human condition

It's hard to believe that human beings can hoard. The act of keeping things just to keep them. What goes through their minds?

They sometimes live in filth, human and animal waste, their homes toppling from within. Do they not see it? I know it's a disease like alcoholism or OCD, but it just pains me yet fascinates at the same time.

I find it so interesting to watch through the TV lens at those who are different than me. It makes me think my life isn't as bad as I think it is and I feel like I want to help them.

This show has been on 10 years now and it never fails to amaze me. I sometimes weep as I see how others live and that their families cannot even help them sometimes.

This is very addictive. I usually feel sorry for the animals though when they hoard them, it's not pleasant ?

Mark @ Carstairs Considers (2165 KP) rated Kitty Kitty Bang Bang (Pampered Pets Mystery #3) in Books

Mar 9, 2018

Caro’s neighbor, Kitty, is a publicist to the stars, but her cats are also becoming clients. You see, Kitty’s cats are artists, and Caro is spending her evening at a showing for some of their paintings along with other animal artists. The evening ends in tragedy, however, when Kitty dies in a car crash. Except the crash isn’t what killed her. Caro doesn’t want to get dragged into another mystery, but when she does, can she find the truth?

This book is a ton of fun. We get some absurd situations and delightfully funny characters as we go along. The plot could be a little stronger, but I was having so much fun, I didn’t care too much. We do get some good twists and suspects before reaching the end.

Wild Zoo Train by Carmela LaVigna Coyle & Illustrated by Steve Gray a charming is a fun book filed with trains and animals. It is full of great rhyming, repetition and vocabulary words. The strong illustration will have kids flipping the pages and wanting to read it again.

It is so very colorful, crazy train conductor, the kids see all kinds of animal that you would find in a zoo. It could also be easily use as a search and find. The book is all about children visiting the zoo and hoping on a train to see different parts of the zoo and the conductor making sure they have what ever they need to do that. Just a great all around book for memorize and practing words.

I received this ARC from Rowman & Littlefield and Muddy Boots via NetGalley in exchange for an honest review.
