Reading

David enjoys looking at books. It is very cute. He also likes to pull all the books off the shelves.

New Books

I received two books for my birthday. The first is Wild Color by Jenny Dean. It is a wonderful book on making dyes from plants. So far I have tried three dyes. I will have to post pictures sometime. I have been wanting this book for a long time but it is out of print therefore hard to find(at least for a reasonable price). My sister was able to find it online and she got it for me. I have such a great sister.


The second book is The Rim of the Prairie by Bess Streeter Aldrich. It is a sweet, simple story that takes place in a small prairie town. It is beautifully written. The characters are so real. You feel like a part of their joys, heartache, laughter, and trials.

Books, books, books

I have been tagged by the Servens to post about books. So here goes.

1. One book that changed your life. Inside the New Age Nightmare by Randall N. Baer. I have never read this book, but my parents read it and were saved right afterward. They had been into some new age ideas and this book really opened their eyes to the truth. If they had not read this book I am sure my life would have been very different. Also the Bible, the Word of God. The Bible continues to change me as I read it more and more.

2. One book that you've read more than once. I have read many books more than once. When I was younger I read many books by Marguerite Henry more than several times.

3. One book that you would want on a desert island. The Bible. I would need this book more than any other book.

4. One book that made you laugh. All the Anne of Green Gables series. Anne was always getting into the most awkward scrapes. Also Nicholas Nickleby and others by Charles Dickens.

5. One book that made you cry. A Tale Of Two Cities by Charles Dickens. I really, really enjoyed this book.

6. One book that you wish had been written. I can't think of any right now.

7. One book that you wish had never been written. I am not sure about this one either. There are many books that it would probably have been better if they had never been written.

8. One book that you are currently reading. The Woman in White by Wilkie Collins. I am enjoying it so far. I will know for sure if I like it when I finish it.

9. One book that you are meaning to read. Well there is a whole list of those:) I just bought some used classics that I will read soon. I always enjoy getting suggestions.

10. Now tag four people. I don't know very many people with blogs so I will only tag Mandy. If you don't have time to do this don't worry about it.
