I went to the thrift store with the express purpose of getting kid's books that I had either never read and/ or had at some point given away. All children's books are .50 at this particular thrift store unless for some reason they have a sticker pricing them higher. You might wonder why, if I went for books I'm showing you a Teddy bear. I made the mistake of walking past a display of dolls and here with them was this adorable flapper teddy. Obviously I had to buy her.
The Helen Forrester, although not a kids book, was in the children's book area .
With the weather turning milder I won't be reading quite as much as I am these days but I have the books and will eventually read them.
I must apologize for Blogger. Once again several comments have disappeared. If you left a comment but don't now see it rest assured I did read it before it disappeared. I find this rather frustrating. Does anyone else have this same issue?
Thanks for visiting,
Granny Marigold
Having just participated in a Laura Ingalls Wilder challenge I immediately spotted some Little House books with the ones you purchased. Great collection...and for 50 cents how could you pass them up?
ReplyDeleteI don't think I've had the disappearing comments problem. A few years ago I had two full sets of the Chronicles of Narnia, thinking I would give them to my kids when their kids were big enough. Jordan saw them and said, "Mom, I think you're hoarding." Ha ha. So, I gave one set to the library book sale, and I may still have the other somewhere. They were mismatched sets, but I like that.
ReplyDeleteLooks like some great reading there. No disappearing comments that I know of, but I do have one reader/commenter who doesn't show up on email like all of the rest do.
ReplyDeleteor not! I know some go to spam and I have to go and get them:) Good for you buying books! :)
ReplyDeleteI publish the comments on my blog, but I hardly ever go over and look at them ON my blog, you know? So I wouldn't even notice if they were lost, eek!
ReplyDeleteWhat a nice selection of books! I think I see Heidi hiding back there, the very same edition I had as a little girl. Good reading, Granny M.!!
Who could resist buying that cute bear, especially to add to a collection. She is mighty fancy! I don't think comments disappear from my blog, but there are a few who leave comments that never show up or they go to spam.
ReplyDeleteI love the bear, she's is adorable!!
