Anne Thomas Ha!!!! When does the 3rd book come out? Not soon enough now that the 2nd is here!!

Vintage PSA for National Library Week circa 1961.

Must track this down - wonder if this is the same Hilary Knight who did the "Eloise" illustrations? (With thanks to Spice & Sass for posting this)

Samma It is the same Hilary Knight! He also illustrated Bracken's I Hate to Cook Book and its appendix, which are charming and worth tracking down!

Melissa A. @ipickpretty @Sammah Aha, thank you! It's going to find my way into my Christmas stocking & those of a few friends.

Frances My parents had a copy of The I Hate to Cook Book. These books were *huge.*

"The Catcher in the Rye" - I don't want to imagine an adolescence without Holden.

Perhaps my favorite illustration from my favorite book. Someone send me the original & charge it, please.

Re-reading & loving even more than the 1st go 'round. If you somehow missed this back in the "Bridget Jones" heyday - and if so, why so? - you must remedy that immediately, Smug Mummies in particular.

Melissa A. @ipickpretty @BelleOnHeels - You must! I just stayed up late finishing & loved it to the end. @agathamchristie - Would you believe I've not yet seen "Downton Abbey"? Must join that Netflix thingy & rent immediately.

Started reading this to my boy this weekend. He's too young for it, but then again one is never too young to learn how to be amazing.

Am on my annual "P&P" re-read & just realized I have five copies between book, Kindle, CD & DVD. Seeking version that comes w/ actual Colin Firth.
