Remote. <br /><br />I was there last summer for a weeklong writing workshop.<br /><br />One day at lunch I stopped to talk to a boy. He was waiting for his mom to pick him up. Every day he came to the library at Sul Ross, he told me, to read their children's books. <br /><br />After that, I just had to go visit the library. And the boy was right; the library has lots and lots of old western children's books. <br /><br />I just couldn't stop taking pictures of them.Deb Nance at Readerbuzzhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12128529491888701996noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7497062501059248350.post-88650177407407440402014-04-19T08:16:27.347-05:002014-04-19T08:16:27.347-05:00What lovely old books they are.
