I love books!
Three things I love...
Biking
Blogging
Books
I can't go home today.
The real estate lady
is showing the house.
So I go to The Land -
The Little House -
....where I'm surrounded
by my books.
KC moved all my books here
when I returned from America.
So now when I need to visit old friends
or find just the right book
for my mood....
...I have to go to
The Little House.
I begin stacking my bookly friends.
Gardening books here...
Travel books there....
Oddly enough,
the Simplicity stack is the largest.
The cooking stack
is the shortest.
:)
I have my stack of Dummies books...
...including KC's favorite -
Rottweilers for Dummies.
In one book
I find an old
Halloween invitation.
The Steussy-Williams Halloween party
was famous in those days.
I need to find our copy
of The Halloween Tree.
I read that to the kids
at night
under the old Hickory Tree
by flashlight.
It's the best read-aloud book
in the world!
Mr Moundshroud.
Even his name opens your mouth
in lugubrious tones.
I remember so fondly
reading to the kids
every night
by candlelight.
When I retire
I've decided my job
should be reading to kids.
There's no place
I'd be happier.
