I take dust jackets off so they won't get dmaaged when I read a hardback book too! My parents taught me to respect and revere books from a very young age. They found me cutting out a picture of a book when I was around 3 years old and were furious with me. I remmeber to this day being very confused and upset as I was trying to save the animal from being caught by the zoo keepers. You see, he was very upset in the picture and I wnated to make it better the only way I knew how! They explained to me though that books are important and should be looked after nad it has always stayed with me!Bobkathttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11842625953465490864noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2958679963868626698.post-13284290394929070642010-02-02T08:21:33.640-05:002010-02-02T08:21:33.640-05:00Wow Judy...you invented cut and paste. too funny ;...Wow Judy...you invented cut and paste. too funny ;-)Tammyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05797288816050536125noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2958679963868626698.post-49080150542748354732010-02-02T08:04:49.209-05:002010-02-02T08:04:49.209-05:00Have you quit slapping yourself up side your head ...Have you quit slapping yourself up side your head yet?
