I was in Ireland recently, and delivered some copies of 'Abbey Girls' to Des Kenny at Kennys Bookstore and Art Gallery in Galway. Visiting Des is always a pleasure. I had sent him the story about the New Glarus Book Sale (September 2017 Blog) and he got a good laugh out of it. He had a few of his own Book Sale stories, needless to say - good ones that had me in fits of laughter. A couple of days later, I got an e-mail from Des asking how soon could I get more books to him. Seems that there was a backlog of demand, and all the ones I delivered had already been sold. It's not often you get an e-mail like that!

Books play a significant role in my life. It can never be replaced. It is a symbol of knowledge. Books are said to be the cheapest mode of transportation. It can take us into a different world of imagination. Sometimes when I read a book, I often forget myself and the time. Reading doesn't remind me the anxieties of the world. I am immediately sent into a land of beauty, imagination and happiness. We should have more books, for young future generations and older ones to enjoy. Leave a Reply. |
