Sigh

Nice find for my green book collection!

It even has some color pictures inside.

And again, sigh...

Ohhh. I Like This!

I was happy to find this nice copy of Emily's Quest.

And, it's green!

I do LOVE a green book.

And L. M. Montgomery?

Ohhh. I DO like this!

The cover is very nice too. Just that bit of damage that appears in the lower left corner.

I remember reading somewhere that L. M. Montgomery once said that the "Emily" series was the most autobiographical of all her books. I really enjoyed the series.

Maybe I should read it again.

Yet Another Green Book

The picture on the dust jacket caught my eye. Then I recognized the author. And, when I saw that the actual book was green, how could I pass it up? AND it was on sale. For one dollar and twenty cents. It appears to be a first addition, but since I paid so little for it, I'm thinking that I shall make something of the dust jacket. The book can live happily ever after in my green book collection.

The Egg and I

Oh!

Look what I found!

A lovely copy of "The Egg and I" by Betty MacDonald.

I have wanted this book for years. I found it at an antique mall in Wisconsin. One of my favorite things about hunting for something for a long time (as opposed to buying it on ebay), is that delightful thrill one gets upon finding it! Just like a treasure hunt. And, this book is green, so as soon as it's finished, it will have a place of honor in my 'green book' collection.
