Still running about looking for gifts. There are birthdays this time of year too and one of our favourite places to visit is Contact. This is a very special book store filled with used and rare collections.
The main attraction for me is the children's section, of course. These two little Bonzo books (about 3in. x 3in./ 7.5cm. x 7.5cm.) are so sweet with illustrations by George Ernest Studdy were a pleasure to look through.
The Uncle Remus books are always fun to read although there is not much information about the illustrator, J.M. Conde.
I wish I could have taken more pictures of this wonderful book store that is actually the main floor of an old house. O, well.
It is probably fitting
that the last few posts
have been about
children
and
presents.
I hope your last weekend
before Christmas
is full of
laughter
accomplishments
&
fun
Sounds an enchanting place in which to get completely lost in time! Love the Bonzo books, so cute, you can learn so much from these talented people! Hope you have a lovely Christmas, maybe take a rest??? :)
