July 24, 2013 Stocking the Library

Assorted Books

The Little Free Library in front of my house has had a number of visitors already. Several books have been borrowed and others donated to the collection. I can see that there is a need for a wide variety of reading levels as well as subjects, so today I went to the local used book store. For a lover of books, walking into this shop is like allowing a child to run freely
 in a candy store. The odor of musty pages and old print combined with shelf after shelf of faded paperbacks next to rows of dusty hardcovers brought a smile to my face. Where to start? Imagine trying to select books for people that you don't know. After perusing the stacks for an hour, I finally purchased several. I hope I chose well and my neighbors will appreciate my collection. Happy Reading!
