What is the use of a book, without pictures or conversations?
Pam has
read 1 book toward her goal of 25 books.
It is our choices, Harry, that show what we truly are, far more than our abilities.
She is too fond of books, and it has turned her brain
Quote of the Day
Grace was in all her steps, heaven in her eye,
In every gesture dignity and love.

I recently attended one of the most interesting book club meetings ever. To be sure, the opinions are usually quite mixed but generally friendly. Last night’s discussion, however, was completely different.
I was about the only person in the group who enjoyed the book. I thought it a fun, light, silly poke at Christmas movies and mankind.

I’m sure most adults are familiar with the tragic story of Anne Frank and her family. Most adults have also probably read the book in high school as a reading assignment. To be sure, the story is depressing, tragic, and at times, unreal. After all, it is difficult to imagine a time when people where being . . . → Read More: BANNED BOOK: The Diary of Anne Frank

Wow, I don’t know where to begin when reviewing The Indian in the Cupboard by Lynne Reid Banks. I guess i should first say that overall it is a delightful story. I enjoyed the ending and of course the main character learned a valuable lesson about how to treat people of all sizes and races. That . . . → Read More: The Indian in the Cupboard

Narnia! It’s all in the wardrobe just like I told you!
It’s so much more friendly with two.
let the wild rumpus begin
Oh well… I’d just been thinking, if you had died, you’d have been welcome to share my toilet
It would be so nice if something would make sense for a change.
If you want to make a song more hummy, add a few tiddely poms.
I was featured during Harry Potter Week!
In the light of the moon a little egg lay on a leaf.
Reading is one form of escape. Running for your life is another
I solemnly swear that I am up to no good
It’s not that there’s anything so wrong with Keith—well, his eyes are sort of uneven.
