2012 Calendar of Book Characters
January 22nd, 2012 by Nancy
January is almost over, so you have probably already acquired a calendar for 2012. Perhaps it’s a celebrity-themed calendar. Perhaps it’s an adorable kitten or puppy calendar — maybe you went rogue and have an adorable duck calendar! But just in case you’re a procrastinator (like yours truly) and have not yet obtained a calendar, I offer you: The-Awesome-Book-Characters-from-Your-Favorite-Kids-Books-Themed-Calendar-for-2012! (The title is still a work progress…) Each book character represents a month this year:

-
- January: Survive the winter like Julie of the Wolves.
-
- February: Find a sweetheart like Stargirl.
-
- March: Who’s more green than Origami Yoda?
-
- April: Celebrate the spring with the Alice and friends.
-
- May: Harry Potter defeated Voldemort on May 2.
-
- June: Spend your summer with the Penderwicks.
-
- July: Go for a swim with Percy Jackson.
-
- August: Avoid going back to school like Greg Heffley.
-
- September: Go back to school with Encyclopedia Brown.
-
- October: Slappy the Dummy of the Goosebumps series (of course).
-
- November: Fantastic Mr. Fox loves his family and a good (Thanksgiving) meal.
-
- December: Laura Ingalls loves celebrating the holidays!
Although I’d love to have a meal with Mr. Fox’s gang, I think my favorite month in this calendar is July. That might be because I wouldn’t mind going to the beach with Percy Jackson. Hey, don’t judge — I’m not so great at swimming and Percy would be the perfect lifeguard.
How about you? Leave a comment below and let us know what month embodies your favorite book character!
