book worm

Recently, my hubby Roger and I went back to his mother's house to dig out some of his old childhood books. I kind of assumed there were going to be maybe just a few, but lo and behold, Roger dug out over three dozen titles. Most of them date from the 70s... and quite a few of them, I'm sure never have been rereleased. Looks like little Jasper has a good start to his library... and we'll be very busy with story time for the next little while!

    Awesome! I was a baby of the 80s, so I had quite a few of those, too.

    Lovely! What a blessed child! We got lots of books from the library when our kids were little!

    What an awesome find! Love that there is some Richard Scarry in there. He was one of my faves, and I've still got his book from when i was a little one.

    Jasper is a very lucky little boy. I think that children who develop a love of books and reading grow up to be fabulous and interesting adults.
