There is one thing that I absolutely love, and that is books. Old books, new books, hardback, and paperback. My dearest love is my collection of antique readers and story books. I have one bookcase devoted to them. Today, I took them down lovingly, one by one and took their pictures. Some are faded and their color lacking, others you can see the original colors and the images inside. I am not a professional with the camera, so these might not be the best quality photos, but they serve their purpose. So without further ado, I present, shelf one of my antique book collection.
These first two books are some of my oldest. One is a phonetic’s book from 1855 and the other is a Children’s Reading Primer published in 1935.
My two Frank Baum books, just make me happy and smile when I look at them. So detailed and so colorful. This copy of The Wizard of Oz was published in 1956 and The Land of Oz The Further Adventures of The Scarecrow and the Tin Woodsman was published in 1960. Again, prized possessions.
This is the Jules Verne Book that led to The Castaways of the flag first published in 1923 in England. This is the later adventures of the Swiss Family Robinson. This edition was published in 1924. It has the original cloth binding with the attached front cover illustration. If I only had the dust Jacket.
This textbook is from the Alabama public school system and was a music book for children in the primary grades. Published in 1964.
This colorful reader is from 1960 and was issued to the school children in Kentucky. It is filled with barnyard animal stories and other short stories to fire the young reader’s imagination.
The final book is from 1941 and was issued to school age children to promote good health. They learned about teeth, posture, how the muscles work, how the ears work, and exercise.
Hope you enjoyed wandering through my bookcase and seeing my special books. Perhaps I will share more another day. There are three more shelves filled to the brim. Let me know about your favorite books and send pictures. I love looking at the covers and illustrations of old books.
I love Diana Hunter and this book did not disappoint. This was my third book featuring that genius and delightful Diana Hunter. That she was once again in contact with Peter was good news for me. Not so much for Diana. They have their issues. They are, however, willing to work together to solve this intriguing mystery. The mysterious theft was really ingeniously told. I loved the story, the mystery, and the hint of romance.
I was so happy to receive this copy for review. It is such a good series and I can easily give my honest review. This book deserves the 5 hearts I gave it. I can not wait for another book about Diana Hunter to come out. Alison golden has brought this character so much life and such a wonderful back story. She is totally likable and yet she is no pushover.
I have enjoyed her through Hunted, Snatched and now Stolen. They can each be read as standalone, but why not get to know her better by reading them all.
This mystery and suspenseful book is available in Kindle and paperback. You can purchase by clicking the links below.
