"She was not afraid of mice - she loved winter, snow, and ice. To the tiger in the zoo Madeline just said, "Pooh-pooh."
~from Madeline by Ludwig Bemelmans
One of my favorite childhood heroines!
"As long as you have a garden and a library you have everything you need." ~Cicero
"Books are like imprisoned souls till someone takes them down from the shelf and frees them." ~Samuel Butler
About Me
- Maddie
- I would describe myself as a book lover, a bibliophile of the highest degree. I read books voraciously, collect them, and absolutely absorb them. Having books around me is an essential part of my world. I also love flowers of all kinds to admire and appreciate, not necessarily the gardening aspect, since I lack the green thumb touch...
Harold and the Purple Crayon by Crockett Johnson
I love the world Harold creates and where his imagination takes him...
