Answer to Monday's Riddle! Listen Here!


Excellent guessing Riddlers! We welcomed in spring with a little mischief and mixed up the week for April Fool's Day. Lizzy took over the riddle with an interesting review of the audio book for The Deliverers: Sharky and the Jewel by Gregory Slomba for Marvelous Middle Grade Monday. Stop by the post for a chance to win a copy of this new adventure! Giveaway ends Sunday, April 7th. Thursday on Top of the Heap, we plan on telling you about someone else who we like to listen to, and Friday, Jimm Singer, the narrator of the The Deliverers: Sharky and the Jewel, will be stopping by to chat with us about his experience being a storyteller. Saturday, we love to hear your thoughts on The DMS Wants to Know. This week, it's all about listening to the world around you, and when you do, you'll be amazed by what you hear! See you all around the book block ; ) ~ F

 Quiet your mind and settle down- there's plenty of talk going 'round. Do you hear what you see? Are you lost in what may be? Thinking, thinking; more and more- when you stop, it's less a chore. Words depend on their story- when you're silent they reveal their glory. Live not through the thoughts you muddle through, it's all in the _________ that you do.

Fill in the missing word. Can you guess the theme? Answer: Listening!

    I've heard of a doctor that does Riddle Implants that enable even the most deficient in riddle guessing to get the right answer. I'm looking into it.
