Wordless Wednesday - Nice Villains
After my last post contained a resource about "Nice Villains," it caught the curiosity of one reader. As a result, here is more about it.
This is actually a reading passage that goes behind the scenes to look at the actors and actresses who play these villainous roles.
Margaret Hamilton, the witch from The Wizard of Oz, was probably the kindest woman whoever lived! My story highlights her as a "Nice villain."
Alan Rickman, who played a pseudo villain in the Harry Potter films and a definite villain in Die Hard, was always a favorite among his coworkers due to his kind demeanor.
So this is what I am refering to by the term "Nice villains."
So if you are interested, check out my reading comprehension passage and questions about villains on TpT.

#MMMM - Song Titles with Opposites
I can post song titles with opposites. Here's some good ones.
First up, The Clash, "Should I Stay or Should I Go?"
And here is an opposite resource from my store, Synonyms and Antonyms.
Next up, Bon Jovi, "Wanted Dead or Alive"
How about another opposite resource about nice villains?
And my final pick is Simon and Garfinkle, "The Sounds of Silence"

Musical Monday Moves Me with Amber Songs
Last summer, we rescued our sweet baby. My husband wanted a small dog, which she was when we adopted her. We were told she was a year old, so 40 pounds seemed like her limit.
We were wrong. She kept growing and growing until she reached 60 pounds.
But that's okay, because we love big dogs, too. She's almost as big as our Benny.
She is 54% German Shepherd, 30% Grand Perinees, and 16% Boxer.
There are two songs I think of when it comes to Amber. The first one is about the first time I saw her in the packed kennel. They were filled to capacity. Although unlike the song, I knew exactly what to do. Unlike James Blunt in "You're Beautiful," I'd always be with her.
If you saw a face like that, could you walk away without her? For $18 we got the dog, all of her shots, spay services, a tag, chipped, collar, and leash. If you don't have a dog, there are plenty who would love to go home with you at the shelters. Sakura? We changed her name.
The next song, I sing when I put her collar back on when I release her from her cage when I come home. She still chews like a puppy and is also an advid reader who has torn through a few of my books. However, Carly Simon said it best when she sang, "You Belong to Me" because this beautiful dog is mine. :)
