Libraries

When my son argued with me about research in the library vs. research on the Internet, I became outraged. Was he simply trying to get a rise out of his librarian/mother? If that was the case, it worked! What did I do in response? I made him a “library book” that he is required to read at least once each time he visits me. It is filled with quotes and mini posters promoting libraries. This is a sample page.Library book

Book Wreath

Book WreathDue to some slight basement flooding I had to discard my first book wreath. I like this one much better. It is made with one old paperback, floral pins, and a styrofoam wreath.

Naomi Wise

I just finished reading a friend’s newest book, Naomi Wise: A Cautionary Tale. Sandra Redding grew up in Randolph County, NC hearing tales of the orphan, Naomi Wise who was murdered as a young woman on the banks of  Deep River. The author dreamed of  one day writing a novel about Naomi. Kudos to Redding for her perseverance!

Naomi’s life becomes entwined with two women who also have dreams and persevere. Mary Ruth,  a farm wife, and Arabelle, an escaped slave, try to guide and protect the orphan whose life ends tragically.

Sandra is a gifted writer who has won many writing contests. To read more about her, her books, or to read the first chapter of Naomi go to her website @ www.sandraredding.com
