Readathon: Hour 10, 11, 12, 13: La Lecture est Fondamentale

This has to be my favorite picture of all time. I'm the "Deborah" in the chair. This was published in our town's newspaper when I was in first grade. Happily, I grew up to be a librarian working in the same town!

I'm posting this in response to Joystory's Reading is Fundamental MiniChallenge.

Hey there.. just stopping by to see how you are doing. I know how hard it is to blog and read so my thoughts are with you. Make sure you get up to stretch every now and then.

Cutest picture ever! You are doing a great job with your reading!!

The reading will stop
Tomorrow
Bet your bottom dollar that tomorrow
your book count will be higher
Just keep thinking about tomorrow
all the great books you will have to talk about
with your blog friends
If you get blurred or sore, or sleepy
Just stick up your chin
and grin
and say
My TO BE READ PILE, Tomorrow
will be smaller than it was before
and your spirits will soar
because then TOMORROW, TOMORROW You can go shopping TOMORROW at Amazon and BUY SOME MORE!

:D lol

What a great picture of yourself to have! If you haven't already posted it in your library (somewhere, anywhere), I suggest you should do that.
