Mailbox Monday, March 10,2009

Yes, I'm a little behind this week, I could rattle off a bunch of reasons, but I don't want to bore everyone with my drama. In any case, I am offering you my Mailbox Monday...just a little late this week. I hope you still care to know.


I posted this image of Mrs. Morton, the first female letter carrier delivering mail taken in 1917 to recognize Women's History Month. (provided by nypl.org.


Last week I received quite a few interesting books in the mailbox and many for children.

I started a new column on Wednesday called Wednesday's Child where I am posting reviews of children's literature. If anyone would like to join this group please use my logo and sign up. I will have a statement you can add to your blog that I will post this week on Wednesday. The books can be from primary through young adult. Whatever you feel like posting. I hope you join me as our group Wednesday's Child grows.
Here is last week's post of Wednesday's Child to get an idea.

    The new feature sounds interesting, especially since I've been reviewing books with my daughter lately.

    What a great week for you for books! Sonata for Miriam sounds interesting. Happy reading!

    I'm just a little bit jealous that you got Sonata For Miriam. I hope you enjoy it.

I'm glad you stopped by my blog. I welcome your comments and will try to answer you back whenever possible. I like to think we are a learning community, that this is an interactive blog, and communication and dialogue brings us closer together as we share our common interest in reading books.
