"Books"

After working in libraries for many, many years, I thought that this challenge needed something different than book shelves. So a wooden slug looks down on us.

Wow! Will Durant's classics! I had a set of these and one of the floods in Louisville, ruined them.

The bookworm looks like he can't wait to tear into his selection! So Cute!

Máire Uí Mhaicín30-Oct-2008 19:56
That bookworm should be well nourished after making his way through your choice!
sue anne30-Oct-2008 19:34
I like the assortment and the little guy in the end after reading the titles.
Norbert Fortelny30-Oct-2008 19:29
Nice one.
Checking on Will Durant I found this very timely quote from him:
"A great civilization is not conquered from without until it has destroyed itself from within"
Thanks for that.
