150. Frog and Toad Together - Arnold Lobel

Oh, that took awhile! I thank you if you took the time to read this post. Are there any books in my list that you've read, want to read, or want to discuss? I love discussing books with people that have also read that book.

Note: I have not yet read every book on this list. I have this problem. See, everytime I go to a used bookstore I buy more than one book at a time. Those books end up on my bookshelf while I'm reading all the other books I haven't read yet. I know I really should not buy anymore books until I get all of these read and then maybe only buy one book at a time. Oh, I just love books so much!

I'm going to leave you with a quote, now, that describes all too well my feeling toward books.

"My books are friends that will never fail me." -Unknown.

Good day and good reading.
