Handing Down Books

Wolfling came to me this evening looking for a book to read. I took her into my library and introduced her to some of my favorites.

She's about to start The Summer Tree, by Guy Gavriel Kay, the first book of The Fionavar Tapestry.

I am gleeful.

My Wolfling is about to start reading one of my favorite series by one of my all-time, buy-his-books-in-hardback, favorite authors.

I handed on The Mists of Avalon to Alice, and she liked it so much she basically appropriated it--my hardback copy, bought for me by my parents when it was first published. That was in her early teens, and she recently bought me a new copy, also hardbound, to replace it. :)

And I think I need some Arthurian icons....

Wolfling has been shown exactly where to return the book when she's finished with it. ;-)

If you find a good site or group for Arthurian icons, do let me know!
