Yesterday's acquisitions. The tagged book sounds fab - a history of childhood reading. I've spotted chapters on Enid Blyton, Nancy Drew,, Anna Sewell, E Nesbit, Moomins, brothers grimm, and all sorts of goodness. I'm thinking this could be a perfect winter or Christmas read.

My #bookhaul from McKay‘s in Knoxville. Not my best excursion there, but it‘s amusing that I also bought a cymbal boom stand for my drum set. Usually I find books at random other stores, but this time I found percussion equipment at a book store. Kiddo was much more successful, but I don‘t know if I‘ll get a picture of her haul as she‘s already squirreled it away.

Look what I‘m reading, @Centique . You were the last person to post about this book … 8 years ago. 😆

A young girl discovers that she can visit the past while riding her pony, Candy (aka Candlelight). I can‘t resist a vintage time-slip story!

Tamra Looks like delightful escapism. 😍 1mo
LeahBergen @Tamra That it is. And just what I need! 😆 (edited) 1mo
Centique Wow! And thats the edition I remember! I love these - thanks for sharing Leah 😍 1mo

Somehow I never read this myself or to either of my kids. I decided to pick it up for #192025 and it was a really cute and calming this weekend while I was sick. (Published 1926)

CarolynM It‘s a beautiful & fascinating place. I loved my visit there. Are you a Lindsay fan? There‘s a room in the Ballarat Art Gallery that is a recreation of the sitting room of the Lindsays‘ family home in Creswick. 2mo
Eggs Sounds like a great outing🐦💚🌳 2mo
