Book 48 - A book that came out the year you were born
Junie B. Jones and some Sneaky Peeky Spying by Barbara Park
Many of you may look at this book choice and decide that I have turned to ease rather than difficulty.
Let me tell you about the struggle that it was finding a book that came out in 1994. (I sometimes wonder if the only great thing that happened that year was me...)
Mother can also tell you about the struggle that I had, as she was in the living room when the struggles became huffs and puffs.
After I had flipped through ever single children's book that we have on our shelf in the living room, (or maybe Moma just got tired of all the huffing and puffing), Moma took out her mobile device and searched the Google for books that were published in 1994.
When what to our wondering eyes should appear, but a lovely book about Junie B. Jones. I knew for a fact that I had four of her tales on my bookshelf, but I wasn't sure if this book would be amongst them.
Here, I thought I had searched through my entire collection and hadn't found anything. Apparently, I didn't look hard enough.
I took the book to a lovely neighbourhood bakery and sat for my lunch hour to enjoy my readings. Unfortunately, my readings were interrupted by the minute hand approaching the ten. With only three chapters left, I packed up my things and proceeded back to work.
Not to worry though, I was easily able to finish the reading within ten minutes after arriving to my bedroom after supper. Ease, and yet such a struggle.
I had to wonder at what the other customers at the lovely neighbourhood bakery thought of me as I sat with my little book, giggling. Though I try not to think about such things as I go about my awkward life.
Phew, only two! this is t-bear signing off
