Go to GRANDMA'S WRITING ABOUT OTHER'S

It's an ingenuous way to detect the intelligence of kids by the feeds

decshak, I thought
that it had a Capitalist bent. The rich back out of everything and let it all fall apart and then offer to return if unions will disband, etc.....the ungrateful workers and all that. The workers failed to appreciate their masters, the business owners and movers and shakers of big money....not at all communist as I remember it....but, I don't remember what I remember anymore, if that makes any sense.
Sure, you could mail it to me, if no one else wants it....I love audio books and thrive on them, even when I disagree with the authors' points of view.....I will email you if no one else wants it, then send it on....I'll send you an angel for it, one of those that I make....an exchange.

Thanks for letting us know what books are what.
It saves me lots of time. I listened to
Atlas Shrugged once. It was ok. If anybody wants it, give me your address, I'll mail it. It was sort of anti-business, you know. It had a kinda communist bent to it.

Wiley, I still have books from both grandmothers and a Bible from my old
auntie. I loved Nancy Drew, Uncle Remus Stories, Aesop's Fables and The Grimm Brothers Fairy Tales, the old and scary ones! Books are my favorites treasures. Thanks for stopping and remembering with me.

Interesting, I have one book left from my childood, wish I had written it.
Chums (1930-1931) The Amalgamated Press Ltd. The Fleetway house, London, used to be sent to us for Christmas by my Brit Granny, my maternal grandmother whom I never met, sadly. But I have treasured this book, and my siblings couldn't have cared less. I still treasure it.
Others I remember very fondly were, The Yearling, Thunderhead, The Hardy Boys series, so many good memories.

bb, fer sure, seachange and blogpage.....everything changes....
I used to have all of your blogs on my Favs List, but you let so many die, I just used the Home page to access you for months....!!! Go write that novel while your children write theirs.
Mom saved all of the books that we wrote as children. We take them out and read them once in awhile and laugh until we pee. I LOVE my old illustrations! I was heavy on pictures, light on words.
My sister, Penny's books were the worst, but hugely funny now. Her absolute worst was about a hairbrush that didn't do much of anything.....we still sing a song that she wrote while we were on vacation, driving across the USA. Family traditions and all that. Encourage your babies to write, good idea.
