Wow, a classic. How did i miss this before?
A smart 11-year-old girl tries to come to terms with the awesome/awful power of the written word and the unintelligible world of grown-ups.
This is really for my own consumption, to preserve some information and quotes from books i read in my Kindle. As such, i assume it is of no public interest.
The goal of this blog is to preserve a few ideas and quotes from books I read. In the old days when books were not so readily available, people kept "commonplace books" where they copied choice passages they wanted to be able to remember and perhaps reuse. The idea got picked up by V.F.D. and it's common knowledge that most of that organization's volunteers have kept commonplace books, and so have Laura and I.
I'm sure there are many other Internet sites and blogs dedicated to the same idea. But this one is mine. Feel free to look around and leave comments, but not spam.
