| Opening a package of books, I hold my breath -- |
Want to see what was inside the box? Here you go:
David, on hand for the box-opening, could not keep his hands off the books, especially the Boys’ Handy
Book and the story about Hokusai, The
Old Man Mad About Drawing. As you
might guess, I love them all, so wanted to have them available for customer-friends over the holiday shopping season.
Such
treasures! But then, I always do think of my bookstore as a little treasure
island, ready to reward the adventurous, exploring browser.
And we’ve had sunshine today,
too! Truly, my cup runneth over.

What a wonderful batch of books you've received! The one that caught my eye was The Lonely Typewriter. I imagine there are lots of lonely typewriters out there in this age of computers and internet.
Can't ask for a better day up north. A box of books and sun!
My young bookseller colleague Paul Stebleton, of Landmark in Traverse City, is working to make typewriters much less lonely. He not only has an assortment for sale at his bookshop in the Grand Traverse Commons, but he sells ribbons, too.
No sunshine this Saturday morning, but the temperature is so moderate as to feel downright balmy, and I'm liking that....
