I love books.  I was that dorky kid walking to school reading an open book, my feet remembering the way over sidewalk cracks, around tree roots, up curbs, while my mind traveled with the main character along Plum Creek. Sometimes I slowed down before the corner where I met my friends, just to read a little bit more before the greetings.

I trade books with friends and family, give bookstore certificates as gifts, and usually have a stack of books next to the bed, chair, and even in my car.  You never know when an unanticipated traffic jam will provide the gift of a few minutes’ reading! But here’s one way that books can give joy that I hadn’t discovered until this morning – click–> A previously undiscovered joy of books!

This little guy never fails to  make me smile 🙂
