Too cute! Reminds me of the wonderful days spent absorbed in books after afternoon field trips to the library when we’d return with piles and piles of books…
A beautiful thing indeed! It made me think of:There is no frigate like a book To take us lands away, Nor any coursers like a page Of prancing poetry. This traverse may the poorest take Without oppress of toll; How frugal is the chariot That bears a human soul!–Emily Dickinson————————- And:You may have tangible wealth untold,Caskets of jewels and coffers of gold.Richer than I you can never be;I had a mother [father] who read to me.–I don’t know the author–ae
