They are both wonderful, but my son (an animal lover) especially liked the James Herriot's stories. I recently found to huge books on herbs and their uses at Goodwill on 1/2 off day, so I only had to pay thirty five cents a piece. I love adding to our library. I hope you find a spot to store all of your new treasures!Pamhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08659490868053210396noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4916485057164205644.post-1826248670678848072010-04-27T21:42:14.749-04:002010-04-27T21:42:14.749-04:00So good to "meet" so many other book lov...So good to "meet" so many other book lovers!

They thought they were pulling wool over my eyes! I try not to buy books anymore due to space and money limitations. The library is my second home. But then there are always the books that call to me...and they are always kids books. I pretend they are for future grandkids but I know better.Mary Ann Dames - Reading, Writing, and Recipeshttp://www.maryanndames.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4916485057164205644.post-20125414661050344132010-04-27T08:14:14.135-04:002010-04-27T08:14:14.135-04:00Your daughter looks excited too.

I purchased alot of books on tape for the kids as the library is clearing them all out. There's a church booksale that I'm going to this weekend as well. I love the quote in your post.

Now we are to the point we're saving the best of the homeschool books for grandkids (someday?!), and finding new homes for some of the others. The best times with books were the hours spent reading aloud to my boys each night. I think our favorite was the Sugar Creek Gang series. We read it twice through when they were little and started over with the OrganizerSon recently. ~LizMyBulletinBoardhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07961091298654325887noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4916485057164205644.post-16732843071809292592010-04-26T20:16:47.125-04:002010-04-26T20:16:47.125-04:00Gina,

I was so into Little House on the Prairie growing up that I never had read it. Every night our 7 yr. old cuddled next to me in bed and read of Lassie's adventure. What a joy! It was as good as I was always told it was! It didn't cost a cent and it was wonderful entertainment.Money Saving Maine-iachttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11500469344556920815noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4916485057164205644.post-69897784176601129282010-04-26T17:46:55.598-04:002010-04-26T17:46:55.598-04:00One of my favorite quotes is ....Where is human na...One of my favorite quotes is ....Where is human nature so weak as in a bookstore!<br /><br />That is certainly how I feel!!
