I just got tagged by Popin for a Bookshelf Meme
1. What is the book that has been on my shelf the longest?
Marcella, A Raggeddy Ann Story that I have had since 1949. (I was 3 yrs old, you do the math) If you came up with as old as dirt, you got it!
2. What is a book that reminds me of something specific in my life?
My life has been pretty routine and to tell you the truth I can't think of a book that comes to mind easily.
3. What is a book I acquired in an interesting way?
This probably isn't interesting but I inherited 2 books called Spain and the Spaniards Vol 1 & 2 that were published in 1895 from my father's cousin. She was a missionary in Japan in the early 1900's. The most interesting family member I can claim.
4. What is the book that has been with me the most places?
That would be 101 Famous Poems. I had an absolutely dog-eared paper back copy and one year for Christmas, my husband replaced it with a new hard cover copy. Oh,joy!
5. What is a bonus book that I just want to talk about?
I just finished The Piano Teacher and I really liked that story. Good debut novel.
Okay, so now I have to tag other bloggers for this. I tag

ReplyDeleteHey my penguin-loving friend. Just noticed your penguin counter seems to be counting too fast. Please tell me there's not just 3 days until Christmas!
ReplyDeleteLove the Santa shoes! How seasonal! This meme sounds fun. I'll work on that later. December is going much too fast for me!
ReplyDeleteWell, I'm so behind I can't believe it. I don't think I'm going to be able to do the meme after all. Not enough time right now. Maybe another time. Thanks for thinking of me : )
