ReplyDeleteAwesome blog! Thanks
ReplyDeleteI love this! They are totally great!
ReplyDeleteYes please! What a lovely set! We don't really buy sets at the shop where I work, so I rarely get to see things like this (to lust after).
ReplyDeleteThank you for keeping this blog!
I have a copy of my Grandma' Little Women that she got for Christmas as a young girl in 1949! It is one of my most treasured books.
ReplyDeleteOh, how neat! My first visit to your site. I'd love the books for my daughter and I to read together, but even if they don't, your site is quite an eye-catcher. I'll be reading just to see such wonderful interaction with your readers, who all appear to fall under the older definition of that word, as well. :)
