I love your bracelet! Don't remember reading this book, but the name is so familiar. My girlfriend's dad would take us to the library on Thursdays, his day off, and we read so many books in the summers of our youth (in the 60's!). I still love the library, will have to go to our 'tiny' library and see if they have this one.Lisahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14656913798516454912noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5656838591713080284.post-863069896125876322012-06-02T10:38:20.336-07:002012-06-02T10:38:20.336-07:00Oh I love that bracelet, it is so fun!

She loved the book as well. I was always fascinated by the tiny. I loved the idea that they would use these things that we may have 'lost' or that were so utilitarian. This is the perfect embodiment of that book! Thank you for playing with me in this Challenge! Enjoy the day.
