    My home is pretty close to a library at this point. I'd love a week or so to do nothing but read all day and all night. I blame Netflix lol.

    I've been bookworming it since 1987. When I was a kid the Book Fair was my favorite week of the year.

    The second that order form came out I was all over it lol. I was always mad because I couldn't buy all the books that I wanted to. I wonder if they still have those? If not, kids are really missing out.

    I think that's awesome. In the day and age of iPads, Kindles, cellphones, etc. it's great to see that kids not only still enjoy written stories, but read them the old fashioned way.

    Damn, how old am I again? Lol.
