A good read. I crave a good read once in a while. Sometime to immerse myself in. I've found it with The Book Thief. Fascinating story. Interesting story-telling. It's one I look forward to finding time for. And while the subject matter certainly isn't "joyful" --- looking forward to snuggling on the couch, getting lost in the story brings a little joy to my day.
My boys love this series. Thank goodness they don't feel too old for it yet, because I love it, too. It's one of my favorite things to read to them before bed. Duck just cracks us up. Clever stories, funny illustrations and never scary- great bedtime entertainment. These books we can read again and again and again. Easy bedtime joy!
I love books. I love to read. And I love the library. The endless possibilities. The stacks and stacks of books. A new library opened up just a mile from my house. It has a cozy fireplace and a reading nook. I hate to admit it but I've even hired a babysitter just so I could go to the library for some peace and quiet to just sit and read. The time flies by when I'm at the library. Browsing, reading, browsing some more. The library is my little slice of heaven on earth. There is definitely joy in libraries.
