    Hi Anne, I'd love for you to read my humorous novel Small Town Corruption FREE. Visit my website and download it at no charge. I've written four novels altogether. www.regowens.com

    Who wrote Christlike parenting? Sounds like a good one.

    what was The Graveyard Book about? I'm still planning on doing Stiff for my October book group book. I told a few people in the group and they sounded intrigued.

    How was Looking for Anne of Green Gables? Hopefully wasn't a disappointment. Have you read Three Cups of Tea?

    I'm so terrible at keeping up with this site, even though I think it's sp user friendly. I really enjoyed "Peace like a river". It reminded me a lot of "To Kill a Mockingbird". David is reading it now, too!

    Yes, I do, Anne.
    I'm reading 'The Devil Wears Prada'. They say that it is a good book.
    I'm still at the beginning.
    ; )
    and about you?

    We are doing Roll of Thunder, Hear My Cry in book group next month. I read it many years ago, but it was like a new read. It's so heart wrenching I can hardly stand to read that kind of stuff. Why don't you read it and come down? Everyone would love to see Persephone. Chris Crowe, the author of Mississippi Trial will be there. His wife is in our group. He has also written Getting Away with Murder, the non-fiction account. They have adopted two African American daughters. You could stay overnight. I have a conference the next morning, so I have to leave early.

    You're sure welcome. Sorry for not replying earlier, I actually forgot what the note was that I had left for you that you were responding to.

    There's a great interview with Maurice Sendak by Bill Moyers online that you might like (at least it should be online). Originally, the Wild Things were supposed to be horses but Sendak couldn't draw or paint horses so he decided to do 'things' instead.

    Hi Library "Anne", I just found your message of 3 months ago...What I liked about "Last Child in the Woods" was the difference in play when children are in groomed environments, like parks with mown grass, versus wild nature. After I read that, I have so noticed a difference in the places my kids gravitate towards.
    See you soon!

    Yes, Religious Literacy was worth reading. I should rate them, but in the meantime, I only post books that I thought were worthwhile. I don't want to advertise poor books by including them on my shelf.

    Any ideas from your list for a good discussion book for book group next year? You'll be amazed to see that I've added quite a few books to my shelf. We are discussing Me to We with our spouses/guests tomorrow night at a party in our garden.

    Let me guess - Youth Librarian? That's somewhat where I started, many years ago. I still think children's service is the most important thing we do. It is the foundation of the public library - if we don't get them when they are young with a love of reading, books and the library, we'll be dead in the water.
