Books, bits, bobs and the occasional cat…
Good evening bookworm, do come in. That was good timing, there’s some home baked bread cooking ready to eat with a honey or cheese if you would like some. It may taste a little charred on the top as I enlisted the dragons’ help in crisping the edges and they got a little over-excited! Could […]
Read MoreGood evening bookworm, it’s a pleasure to see you. It’s been so hot, I’ve persuaded the Geography Books to help bring a little glacier magic to the library today. Why don’t you sit in the ice sculpted chair over here with an ice cream sundae while I tell you about the book I’ve been reading […]
Read MoreGood afternoon, bookworm, it’s lovely to see you again! Do come in and have a seat. There seemed to be a lot of fuss in the media last month about there July bringing an extreme heatwave in the UK yet the only heat around here lately is the scorching plot in the book I’ve recently […]
Read MoreGood evening, bookworm, do come in! I’m sorry if you dropped in on me yesterday – I was unexpectedly unavailable and had to close the mystical library for a time, something I’m loathe to do but at least I’ve been able to open again today. Do you hear that rustling in the background? The books […]
Read MoreGood afternoon bookworm, do come in. As promised on your last visit, I’d like to tell you all about the next instalment in the Sam Applewhite series by Heide Goody and Iain Grant: Doggerland. Firstly, here’s the blurb: There’s something wrong at the Otterside Care Home. When Sam Applewhite tries to help a friend who’s […]
Read MoreGood afternoon, bookworm, do come in! Summer solstice has passed and it’s the first day of July so I’m struggling a little to keep the peace in the bookshelves today since the Christmas books have gotten themselves rather overexcited; they are insisting they should have the most prominent spot in the library to help people […]
Read MoreGood afternoon, bookworm, do come in! I’m indoors today doing some much needed dusting of the photographs dotted around the library. I hadn’t realised just how many have been photo-bombed by dragons, cats or piles of books which had sneaked off the shelves and into the background of the shot. Actually, photo-bombing makes me think […]
Read MoreGood afternoon, bookworm, do come in! Did you manage to see the eclipse this morning? The Science and Astronomy books have been excited for days and were most aggrieved by the clouds blocking their view. I often think of what it must have been like for people hundreds of years ago who saw an eclipse […]
Read MoreGood morning, bookworm, do come in. Excuse the strange smell in the mystical library today; I asked the Natural Health books to make me a salve for my sunburn (the perils of spending lots of time reading indoors – I burn like a vampire when I do venture out!) and I suspect the Humour books […]
Read MoreWell, hello there, bookworm! It’s so lovely to see you again. I hope you weren’t knocking at the door long before you came and found me in the garden; I thought it was high time I tidied up the mystical garden. Just watch your fingers as you walk past the snap dragon plants – they […]
