20 Books Already!

Zipping right along we are already up to 20 books. Tonight we had a quick trip to the library before going to see Shrek 3. We found some very good books in a very short time with the help of our friend Denise who is a librarian at our local library.

Book #15 My Grandmother's Clock by Geraldine McCaughrean

The Grandma in this book explains why she doesn't need to get the big grandfather clock fixed and how she can tell the seconds, minutes, hours, days and years by observing things around her.
