Today I spent an hour with half of the town at the annual Matamata Historical Society Book Fair...oh what joy!
Look what I got for $20...
Favourite Finds included...
Nathaniel Hawthorne's 'Wonder Book', 'The Chronicles of Robin Hood' by Rosemary Sutcliffe with lovely colour plates, and a lovely treasury of story excerpts with biographical info on the authors collated by Margery Fisher
My most charming find was "The Country Diary of an Edwardian Lady". What a wonderful example of a nature journal for my children and myself.
Time for another new bookshelf...c'mon we only have four so far.
